With the outbreak of COVID-19, we are all locked in our
homes since March 25th. It’s a long forty day period and nobody would deny that a Wi-Fi connection has been one of the most essential service
during this tough time. While our parents busy forwarding Corona headlines
of all sorts, our generation has explored all what they could, from Prime to
Netflix to Disney-Hotstar, most of you would be having one or more of these
subscriptions.
For those of us who don’t, YouTube comes to the rescue
with multiple short series still freely available to binge on. Life Lafde aur Bandiyan is one such
series which I chanced upon while randomly scrolling through the home page of
YouTube. I must say, one of the best of its genre and comparable to the very famous,
funky series College Romance which was released last year.
PLOT
It is a journey of three friends, Rishabh, Chewang and
Pappi, who aspire to have a happening college life and always think of ways of
being famous in the campus but it rather puts them into trouble with results which
are not only opposite to their expectations, they are rather devastating.
Set in the Delhi University campus, the three friends
always stick together no matter what. They are their worst enemies as well;
always up to some mischief to embarrass the other two, but they got each
other’s backs which is what true friendship is about. The series’ main
protagonist Rishabh wants to date Anju, apparently the hottest chick in college
and also the girl friend of college’s stud boy, Spunky Narula. Anju is friends with Rishabh
for the sweet boy he is and has a soft corner for him. Spunky doesn’t see any
point in his girl friend talking to the guy who is tagged as college’s biggest loser,
Rishabh but Anju eventually discovers that she shares a special connection with
him.
STAR OF THE SERIES
Surely we want to tag Pappi played by Harshit Sidhwani as
star of the series. What a character and what dialogues delivery and what
timings! We can’t stop wondering at all how amazingly, hilariously he has done
justice to the character of a boy who’s reckless, innocent and too excited like
a teenager.
We wish that there was another season to this one but
some good things end abruptly. So if you’re getting bored and do not have a
SVOD service, this is one series you can definitely go for. It will leave you
in a total laughter riot and shocked with what comes next.
