Mumbai, February 28

Netflix has unveiled the trailer of 'Hello Bachhon', a new original series inspired by the journey of educator Alakh Pandey, marking another collaboration with The Viral Fever.

Premiering on Netflix on March 6, the show centres on student aspirations and the transformative role of a teacher whose belief became a catalyst for change.

Following the success of 'Kota Factory', Netflix and TVF return to the classroom with a story rooted in lived experiences from across India.

The title phrase "Hello Bachhon"- more than just a greeting- signals a movement that began in a modest classroom and grew to reach students across cities, towns and the country's smallest bylanes.

The trailer offers a glimpse into five distinct student journeys shaped by hardship and hope. One boy battles financial constraints to pursue his education. A young girl pushes back against expectations that threaten to curtail her studies. Another student quietly gives up his passion for cricket to take on family responsibilities. Despite their varied realities, they are united by a shared dream and strengthened by the guidance of a teacher who believes in their potential.

Directed by Pratish Mehta, the series stars Viineet Kumar Singh in the lead role, alongside Vikram Kochhar and Girija Oak Godbole. The ensemble cast also includes Satendra Soni, Sonu Kumar Yadav, Anshul Dogra, Samta Sudiksha, Varun Buddhadev and Naman Jain, who portray students navigating personal and systemic challenges.

Created by Abhishek Yadav and co-written with Ankit Yadav, Vernaali and Sandeep Singh, 'Hello Bachhon' continues Netflix and TVF's focus on youth-driven narratives.

Arunabh Kumar, Founder and CEO of TVF, described the series as a layered story tracing parallel journeys- that of a teacher recognising the universal hunger to learn, and students persevering within a competitive system.

He said, "Hello Bachhon is a truly special series for us. It follows two journeys unfolding in parallel - a teacher who recognised that the hunger to learn exists everywhere, and students navigating their own hardships within a competitive system. What moved us most were the real anecdotes behind these student stories from such diverse & underprivileged backgrounds, and the moments where belief changed the course of their path," highlighting the real anecdotes from diverse and underprivileged backgrounds that shaped the narrative.

Viineet Kumar Singh said portraying a figure who has influenced millions came with both responsibility and gratitude, adding that he hopes audiences connect with the warmth and resilience at the heart of the story.

"What makes Hello Bachhon powerful is that it tells two journeys with equal heart - a teacher finding his purpose, and students finding their belief. As an actor, portraying someone who has impacted millions comes with great responsibility, but also deep gratitude. I approached the role with utmost respect and gave it everything I had. I hope audiences feel the warmth, struggle and hope that define this journey, and see a reflection of countless journeys from across our country," he said.

Tanya Bami noted that the series reinforces Netflix's commitment to stories of aspiration, grit and determination among India's youth.

"With Hello Bachchon we are doubling down on stories of the youth of India and their challenges. Stories of hope, aspiration, grit & determination of millions of students who rise above their circumstance to inspire each other and also the next generation of students and make parents and teachers proud. This series also presents an honest yet cinematic style of Pratish who comes from within the team of TVF, our long-standing partners with whom we've launched Kota Factory and are set to bring forward many more such compelling stories future," she said.

'Hello Bachhon' streams exclusively on Netflix from March 6.

As someone who taught in a rural school in Maharashtra for a year, this trailer gave me goosebumps. That "hunger to learn" Arunabh Kumar mentioned is so real. Viineet Kumar Singh looks perfect for the role. TVF and Netflix are on a roll.

The boy giving up cricket for family responsibilities... that's the story of half my friends from my hometown in UP. It's so refreshing to see these real, grounded stories instead of another glamorous college drama. More power to TVF!

While I appreciate the intent, I hope the series doesn't just romanticize the struggle. The "systemic challenges" mentioned are very real—poor infrastructure, lack of resources, societal bias. The show needs to address these honestly, not just offer an inspirational teacher narrative.

Alakh Pandey's story is truly inspiring. From a small classroom to impacting millions. "Hello Bachhon" was more than a greeting, it was an invitation to dream. Excited to see how they've adapted it. TVF's 'Kota Factory' set the bar high, hoping this matches up!

The diversity of the cast is promising. Stories from the smallest bylanes, as they say. This is the kind of content that helps the world understand the complex reality of education in India. Looking forward to it.
