New Delhi: After ‘Aspirants’ and ‘Kota Factory’, TVF is back with another young adult drama ‘Half CA’ focusing on the intricacies and nuances of cracking one of the world’s most professional exams, Chartered Accountancy. The trailer of the show was released on Thursday.
The trailer gives viewers a glimpse into the hardships students face aspiring to become CA. The series depicts the experiences of CA aspirants, from the outset to the finals, along with dealing with some existential dilemmas as they prepare for the exams. Half CA features Ahsaas Channa, Gyanendra Tripathi, Prit Kamani, Anmol Kajani, and Rohan Joshi.
The story revolves around Archi (Ahsaas Channa), who struggles with the fundamental question of "Why do CA?" and concludes with her ambitious cousin brother Niraj, who has failed CA final attempts twice. The plot also focuses on Tejas, Vishal, and Parth, key characters who are on the path of achieving and fulfilling their aspirations.
Talking about the show, actor Ahsaas Channa said “'Half CA' has been an amazing journey for me and my character, Archi, as we dive into extensive preparations for competitive exams. From hustling her way in this unapologetically ambitious world to climbing the ladder of becoming a CA, the highly competitive environment strikes a competitive connection with students who are preparing for competitive exams.”
“Moreover, the series gives a unique perspective into the lives of students as well as the joys and hardships they confront as they navigate adulthood while dealing with family and peer pressure," she added.
Echoing Ahsaas’ viewpoint, fellow actor Prit Kamani added, “Revolving around the lives of CA aspirants and their challenges, the story is a personal one, since my brother is a CA. Coming from a commerce background, I have seen what a nerve-wracking experience it is to prepare for one of the world's toughest professional exams.”
He further mentioned, "My character in the show is a homage to my college life, a friendly appearance that brings music and colour. I believe every student will find something that will strike the right chord. In a way we are all students, always. I can’t wait for everyone to watch it.”
Created and produced by TVF, ‘Half CA’ is directed by Pratish Mehta and also stars Gyanendra Tripathi, Anmol Kajani, and Rohan Joshi in quintessential roles.
‘Half CA’ will be available to stream on Amazon miniTV on July 26, 2023.
