The story is set up in Surat, Gujarat. Most of the time we see that the set up is from any educational institution in a metro city or any renowned campus. But here, we can see the plot is of a normal college. You can see a realistic exploration of incidents which take place in a college. The language can be related to the current youth. Many incidents are there which are used in the movies like 3 Idiots and Gujarati movie Chello Divas. The author not only entertains us but also brings out some issues like the virtual world in which the youngsters are involved most of the time. Instead of living in the moment, they are involved in capturing it and showing off to the world via social platform.
