The entrepreneurial ardour isn’t very new to the country. The young minds with their heads on the rainbow are every day out on their white horses, questing to bang on their career as an entrepreneur. That vague and desperate search for ‘purpose’ in life certainly kicks in the ‘start-up rush’, but it somehow doesn’t actually end with the fruits that we expect to fall from the sky! And that’s exactly what season 2 of Pitchers brings in.
The Pitchers are back with their vision in real, ‘PRAGATI’. However, the hunt begins with three to four, and Jeetu goes missing. Naveen, Yogi and Mandal are out with their armours to attract good sponsorships and investments. The chase in between the escape clauses that they fall into while embracing new investments all gets you in the realistic crux of what it is like to take on a not-so-unpremeditated journey.
TVF’s series ‘Pitchers S2’ stars a bright starry ensemble in leads, Arunabh Kumar as Yogi, Naveen Kasturia as Naveen Bansal, Abhay Mahajan as Mandal, Rojinu Chakraborty as Appu, Abhishek Banerjee as Bhati, Chandan Roy as Dutta, Ridhi Dogra as Prachi. The show outlooks on a crisp framework with a lineup of five episodes, each enveloping in sixty minutes.
However, while we watch further and go in-depth about the episodes, we feel that the screenplay snakes through extreme fervour and well-nurtured thoughts that residue on the very idea of good and bad of entrepreneurship. The groundswell of advocacy and erudite meddling are pertinent, yet somewhere it falls behind the curtains of blatant boast of a good script that we witnessed in the first season. Even the baffling insertion of Ashneer Grover didn’t really help in pulling up its own dug hole. We somewhere felt that season 2 somewhere stretched upon the detritus of flumes that was left ignited in us seven years back.
The Viral Fever brought in a daydream that India in its digital setting had never witnessed. Starting off with an unpretentious root, TVF embarked with unique content, that became easily ‘relatable’ amongst the youngsters. Infamously known as the Qtiyapa guys on the internet, TVF brought in a narrative shift in the entirety of the content. With a mic drop series Permanent Roommates, that TVF brought into the digital spectrum, it’s since then, that how the scenario changed in the summoning of ‘web series’ sketches.
Soon after the release of India’s first web series, Permanent Roommates, TVF decided to devise a bit more subjective screenplay on the front. That’s when they came up with ‘Pitchers’, soon after its release, it was savoured by a voluptuous number of young minds all across. What’s more, the quandaries, the constant struggle to find the ‘destiny’, and the frustration that Jeetu had during the ‘work in progress’ swirled out the grounding dilemmas the aspiring youngsters always have when starting off their careers. Certainly, the viewers were keenly waiting for its second season, and it took seven long years for the makers to actually put it up in black and white. Arunabh Kumar, the founder of TVF as finely pointed out the‘ curse of sequel’.
