Kota Factory S03E05: Jeetu Bhaiya’s Overhaul & New Twists 🎬

Jeetu Bhaiya (Jitendra Kumar) of 'Kota Factory' on Netflix is the archetype of the great teacher—competent as well as caring. At the end of Season 2 of 'Kota Factory', which released in September 2021, we saw Jeetu Bhaiya's worst fear realized when a student committed suicide. Season 3 begins with Jeetu Bhaiya coming to terms with this satya (truth).

For the uninitiated, 'Kota Factory' is set in Kota, Rajasthan, which has become famous/infamous as a centre of IIT-JEE preparations. The story revolves around IIT aspirants Vaibhav (Mayur More), Balmukund Meena (Ranjan Raj) and Uday (Alam Khan); and their physics teacher-cum-mentor Jeetu Bhaiya.

As another student Meenal (Urvi Singh) says early in the show, Jeetu Bhaiya solves all problems—academic, non-academic, financial, romantic—for students. In Season 3, Jeetu Bhaiya revisits this equation with students and his responsibility towards them and towards himself even as Vaibhav, Meena, Uday et al hurtle towards their joint entrance exam (JEE).
