Results don’t define the journey, the efforts does.

We were assigned with the task of watching a movie and understand its educational implications. I had  chosen the movie "Chhichhore (2019)"

Film: Chhichhore

Genre: Drama

Director: Nitesh Tiwari

Cast: Sushant Singh Rajput,Shraddha Kapoor,Prateik Babbar


Chhichhore operates on two planes. The first is nostalgic, with flashbacks to hostel life on an college campus. On another plane it offers a message on pressure to make the grade, to live up to imposed expectations and be prepared for success, failure and everything in between.

In the present, Aniruddh “Ani" Pathak (Sushant Singh Rajput) is a successful professional who has custody of his teenaged son. Inadvertently, Ani has been loading expectations of Raghav (Mohammad Samad) as he appears for his common entrance exams. Plans are made to celebrate a sure-shot grade. Raghav’s mother, Maya (Shraddha Kapoor), however, comforts Raghav that the result is not as important as his intent. In the midst of this, Raghav makes a terrible choice.

Watching their son oscillate between life and death, Ani dips into his bank of memories and calls upon the support of his college friends.

They recount the story of their hostel life and, through their experiences as the underdogs that tried to change the odds and shake off the label of “losers", they attempt to convey important life lessons to Raghav.

Chhichhore beautifully drives home the point that our society and education system sadly doesn't equip students to handle failure, only success.

The movie throws a light on the student suicides that take place all over the world, including India. In our country, a student commits suicide every 55 minutes, as per statistics.


“We are so entangled with the success and failures of our lives that we forget to live life itself.”


The film is a good 2 hours 26 minutes long, and some good lessons to learn during that time.

A python approach to GOLDBACH’S CONJESTURE

Goldbach’s conjecture On 7 June 1742, the German mathematician Christian Goldbach wrote a letter to Leonhard Euler, in  which he proposed the following conjecture. Goldbach’s conjecture is one of the oldest and best-known unsolved problems in number theory and all of mathematics.  Every  even integer greater than 2 can be expressed as the sum of two primes What is a conjecture ?😕😕😕 A Conjecture is a conclusion or proposition based on incomplete information, for which no proof or disproof has yet been found. Goldbach number A Goldbach number is a positive even integer that can be expressed as the sum of two odd primes.  Since 4 is the only even number greater than 2 that requires the even prime 2 in order to be written as the sum of two primes, another form of the statement of Goldbach’s conjecture is that all even integers greater than 4 are goldbach numbers. The conjecture has been shown to hold for all integers less than 4⨯〖10〗^18, but remains unproven considerabl effort.😵 Advant

ഓഫ് ലൈൻ ക്ലാസ് അവസാനിക്കുന്നു

 ഇന്ന് വളരെ പ്രത്യേകതകളുള്ള ഒരു ദിവസമായിരുന്നു. കുറച്ചു നാളുകളായി ഉള്ള ഓഫ്‌ലൈൻ ക്ലാസ്സുകൾക്ക് ഇന്ന് അവസാന ദിനം.  നാളെ മുതൽ ക്ലാസുകൾ എല്ലാം ഓൺലൈൻ ആണ്. അതുകൊണ്ടൊക്കെ ആയിരിക്കണം ഇന്ന് സ്കൂളിൽ പൊതുവേ കുട്ടികൾ കുറവായിരുന്നു. മാത്രമല്ല ഇന്ന് സ്കൂളിൽ ലിറ്റിൽ കൈറ്റ്സ് ക്യാമ്പ് ഉണ്ടായിരുന്നു. പകുതിയിലേറെ കുട്ടികളും ആ ക്യാമ്പിൽ അറ്റൻഡ് ചെയ്യാൻ പോയിരുന്നു.  എനിക്കും ആ ക്യാമ്പ്  കാണാൻ സാധിച്ചു.  ഇന്ന് ഒരു പിരീഡ് എനിക്ക് ഫ്രീ പിരീഡ് ക്ലാസ് കിട്ടി 9A Polynomials Concept Attainment Model  കുട്ടികളെല്ലാവരും ക്യാമ്പിന് പോകാൻ തയ്യാറായി ഇരുന്നത് ആയിരുന്നെങ്കിലും പോലും എല്ലാവരും തന്നെ ആക്ടീവായി ക്ലാസിൽ പങ്കെടുത്തു.
