This is a story of Tyagi Sir - a biology teacher just 2 years away from retirement. The film starts on 21st Mar 2020 - the day India announced 1 day of lockdown and then extended it for 5 months.

In the film, Tyagi sir's world changes overnight, as schools go online. We see him struggling. His family tries to help and keep him happy. He is hoping for lockdown to end so that he can go back to school. The day lockdown is removed, he gets to know that online school will continue for 6 more months. This is the day when all his hopes are shattered and he types his resignation letter. He receives a call from one of his ex-students, who is now a doctor thanking him for his contribution in his life. Shaken, Tyagi sir, decides to master technology and new ways of teaching.

BYJU'S is all about teachers. In fact, the EdTech company is named after one. BYJU'S is an online education platform and it understands the challenges of online the most. When the pandemic forced the schools to move online, everyone struggled - teachers, students, parents and schools. While people and media voiced the struggles of parents and students, teachers's struggles went mostly unnoticed.

Amidst, the economic turmoil brought by the pandemic, school's demand for full fees enraged parents and their anger came out on teachers during online classes. This weighed down teachers even more and thousands of them decided to quit.

We decided to highlight the plight of teachers through an honest, realistic story. The film was released 2 days prior to Teachers' Day - the day India celebrates its teachers. Our film came as a shocker to many Indians. It highlighted the plight of teachers, and reminded them of importance of teachers.
