In Video: Netflix unveils ‘Hello Bachhon’ trailer ahead of March premiere
Netflix has released the trailer for ‘Hello Bachhon’, its upcoming series inspired by the real-life journey of educator Alakh Pandey, whose classroom greeting became a nationwide rallying cry for students striving to overcome academic and personal hurdles.
Premiering on 6th March, the series centres on young aspirants who continue to pursue their goals with the support of a teacher who offered them belief and stability at pivotal moments.
The trailer highlights the diverse backgrounds of the students portrayed in the show. One grapples with financial constraints, another navigates social expectations that threaten her education, while a young cricket enthusiast steps away from his passion to take responsibility at home. Their experiences reflect the broader challenges many students in India face, reinforcing the idea that education, opportunity, and hope are not privileges but essential pathways that can influence the course of a life.
Directed by Pratish Mehta, the series features Vineet Kumar Singh in the lead role, supported by performances from Vikram Kochhar and Girija Oak Godbole. The cast also includes Satendra Soni, Sonu Kumar Yadav, Anshul Dogra, Samta Sudiksha, Varun Buddhadev and Naman Jain, who collectively bring to screen five distinct stories of resilience. Their narratives depict the emotional and societal pressures faced by students across the country, as well as the determination with which many continue to chase their ambitions.
Created by Abhishek Yadav and co-written with Ankit Yadav, Vernaali and Sandeep Singh, ‘Hello Bachhon’ represents another collaboration between Netflix and TVF. The series aims to explore the aspirations of young India through grounded storytelling, highlighting the transformative influence of mentorship and support in shaping educational journeys.
Arunabh Kumar, Founder & CEO, TVF shared, “‘Hello Bachhon’ is a truly special series for us. It follows two journeys unfolding in parallel – a teacher who recognised that the hunger to learn exists everywhere, and students navigating their own hardships within a competitive system. What moved us most were the real anecdotes behind these student stories from such diverse & underprivileged backgrounds, and the moments where belief changed the course of their path. The series captures emotions of Different Indias’ and how the journeys of student and a Teacher, intersect to build something meaningful. Through our partnership with Netflix, we’re excited to bring this layered, heartfelt story to audiences across the world.”

Vineet Kumar Singh said, “What makes ‘Hello Bachhon’ powerful is that it tells two journeys with equal heart – a teacher finding his purpose, and students finding their belief. As an actor, portraying someone who has impacted millions comes with great responsibility, but also deep gratitude. I approached the role with utmost respect and gave it everything I had. I hope audiences feel the warmth, struggle and hope that define this journey, and see a reflection of countless journeys from across our country.”
‘Hello Bachhon’ premieres on Netflix on 6th March.
