If you are a fan of Jeetu Bhaiya’s Kota Factory, get ready for a similar emotional rollercoaster!

Any guesses, which show is it? A few of you must have already guessed it right – Lakhon Mein Ek, it is!

 Lakhon Mein Ek – Plot 

Talking about the story, which has two seasons (6 episodes in season 1 and 8 in season 2), it follows a teenager from Raipur, shipped off by his father to Genius Infinity coaching institute in Visakhapatnam, with only one goal — crack the IIT entrance. But reality isn’t as neat as an exam paper. What unfolds is a brutally honest portrayal of academic burnout, alienation, and the silent suffering many teens endure behind closed hostel doors.

IMDb rating and OTT streaming 

Rated 8.1 on IMDb, beating 3 Idiots and Kota Factory, now streaming free on MX Player, the two-season series doesn’t hold back. With standout performances by Alam Khan, Ritwik Sahore, and more, and helmed by director Abhishek Sengupta, this one’s as raw as it is real.

Just one piece of advice: maybe don’t watch it sitting next to your dad — unless you’re ready for a long, awkward conversation.

This weekend, get yourself a tub of popcorn, sit back and relax!
