@D503 for epfo out of 120 questions you can expect around 40 questions from labour law, accounts and social security. Rest of the syllabus and subjects are same as that of CSE except computers and English.

@Sherkhan1428 Where to find? On Tvf play?


coming soon ! not launched yet :)


here is the trailer : 

O man, Trailer is interesting, but don’t think it will match the Kota factory level.

This isn’t looking as real as it could get :(

Maybe because we needed a less popular face in the lead. Hope it turns out to be great though.

I mean that’s not even how peoplelookduring the prep days. 

Unless you have won the genetic lottery .

By a huge margin.

This series is a prequel to TVF Pitchers.

Naveen comes to ORN. Takes two attempts to understand the exam requirements. In his third attempt just when he is about to clear Prelims, he falls in love. It.s infatuation but he thinks, it.s love. Thus fails the third prelims.

Relationship breaks. Naveen takes it on ego. 'thukra ke mera pyar mera inteqam dekhegi' plays in the background. Clears Prelims in 4th attempt. Fails Mains.

Too deep in the rut, fails to get out of the loop. Clears 5th Prelims. Clears Mains. As he joined MGP. But fails in the interview.

Fails Prelims in the 6th attempt exhausting all his attempts.

Finally goes on to face the real world. Goes on to work for a corporate. Then leaves his job, to start a startup where UPSC prep knowledge gets utilised. Somehow. Maybe.

I am really waiting for the day when many web series from India will compete the likes of Better Call Saul, Breaking Bad, etc.... TVF is really doing fantastic work :)

Do we have some talented people here who can do the production.

I can do the script. I have one in mind for like four years now.

I even have some people in mind for the exact roles!

@Todd_ChavezNice. Besides the fact that this is sponsored by a coaching, or the melodramatization by needless interjection of a love-story into it.

I saw the first episode and while Naveen and other actors nailed it, think there was nothing in the script that made me wait or want to watch the next.

Honestly, Isee the series more as an eight hour ad than any genuine attempt at filming the journey of an upsc aspirant.

I think "upsc" or "the struggle" it involves is an impossible topic for any movie/show -- for ultimately it's just an exam, and the journey mundane for the most part. Though it can be made into a brilliant documentary. But then, who'd watch that? Certainly not the primarily target audience of the sponsors: young people fresh out of college, with their "urge to heroism" at its peak.

Late, but: out. Psychology optional. Keeping it, because I think I know I went wrong: answer writing practice. Wrote nearly half of Paper 2 in "GS-style." I mean, just take at look at the paper, most of it can be answered without any domain knowledge. Unless you've practiced enough, the answers won't come out "technical" enough.

True, and the glorification of the exam to the level that it is the xray that can test everything in you. After railways the best thing British left was UPSC they said😅 If it was my first attempt I would for sure have a poster of this series in my room. Makes sense considering their target audience.

@thepolicydreamer I watched just 5 minutes.. And melodrama was at its peak.. 

Unnecessary glorification to lure aspirants and proortraying the exam as something bigger than life. 

Alas what can we expect when the coaching mafias itself are sponsors. 

If you want to watch a 8 hour advert then only watch the series. 

But I appeal young aspirants to not fall into the trap of this glorification. Take your call rationally and not attach top much emotion to this exam.

UPSC is not pinnacle of power and money.Take sachin waze for example.Joined as SI and is one of the most powerful police man in Maharashtra.Generally people think that the higher the designation ,more the power.The equation is more of the combination of right caste+right region(marathi,tamil etc)+ designation.A bihari ips will not be respected that much in maharashtra.A lower caste will not be allowed to enter into finance department.If you are yadav,go for UPPSC.If you are marathi,go for MPSC etc.A yadav state sdm is far better than politically not powerful caste dm.India still runs on caste despite what many people tell you otherwise.If upper class face financial difficulties ,govt will provide blank cheques to them.E.g.Sensex is being pumped by RBI printing money so that it does not fall.In the new economic order,there's excess money.This is upper class nrega scheme by govt which allows so many startups with thousand of crores of losses to find work as techies.

Ek baat aur.Do not think that you are going to change india.Do you think that you will be allowed to work to bring equality.A country only runs because of inequality.Sometimes it is legislated in the form of freight equalization policy.Sometimes its is by printing money giving that out to a selected few.What happened to bihar and eastern states should remove any kind of doubt in your minds that you will bring equality.That is never a state's goal.It is to maintain inequality.Your goal is not to create solutions.Kashmir ka solution ho jayega to who will buy guns and bullets.Your goal is to keep the sludge flowing.

I like how it escalated from a web series to fiscal policy to casteism to regionalism to financial markets to marxian analysis of state to equal growth of industries to Kashmir banega USA

@Neyawn  please do take an open widespread audition for all the roles in your mind be it small or big.. what I feel that casting is not done properly in our part of cinema.. whereas in overseas the casting of peoples in different role is given as much importance as to the script and background. A movie is Teamwork.
