Reception
A large portion of the pundits found Compressed lesson as a side project rendition of Netflix series Kota Processing plant. Archika Khurana for The Hours of India rate 3/5 stars and composed “‘Compressed lesson’ has the same old thing to propose concerning experiences. One thing that stays steady all through the show, while perhaps not more, is that you will miss Kota Production line’s Jeetu Bhaiya and his expressions of wisdom…” Prateek Sur for Standpoint evaluated 2.5/5 stars and composed “‘Intense training’ is a hard-hitting and practical perspective on the present schooling system. Its heart is perfectly positioned, nonetheless, the messy composing kills the fun.” Ruchi Kaushal for Hindustan Times stated “Brief training remains a long way from Kota Manufacturing plant in authenticity yet assumes praise for tending to understudy suicides, parental tension, the interruptions they face away from home, love points, high school pregnancy and even drugs.” Deepa Gehlot for Scroll.in expressed “There was the same old thing to add to the story of ravenous training classes, pushy guardians and weak understudies. Hence the Amazon Prime Video series Intensive lesson, coordinated by entertainer essayist Vijay Maurya from a content by Manish Hariprasad and Raina Roy, tracks recognizable ground.” Pratikshya Mishra for The Quint expressed “Dissimilar to Kota Plant, the show is more holding while it’s zeroing in on the business and the governmental issues of training, particularly living through Udit Arora as Binny, the ‘genuine top dog’ of Kota”. Namrata Thakker for Rediff.com expressed “The series has 10 episodes with a runtime of 50-odd minutes per episode, and that is excessively. The producers might have crushed the story in seven or eight episodes, making it crisper.” The Pinkvilla shone some light on the web series as Netflix web series Kota Manufacturing plant and stated “With everything taken into account, Compressed lesson is a far off family member of Kota Production line, which constructs some strain in the principal episode yet misses the mark on curiosity because of a generally notable series in the equivalent space.” Shubham Kulkarni for Koimoi expressed, “Composed by Hariprasad and Raina Roy the show moves its concentration from the understudies to the wreck behind the scene and how they just become the blow-back of this frantic crazy thrill ride of a city.”
