A
(Kiss Of The Angel)
A technical love story

‘I always had the notion of two types of academic life- school life and college life. But then I
came to know about the third.’

These are the words of Akash Malhotra, a guy whose life is in mess because of three things-
1) He is an IIT-JEE aspirant.
2) He is in love with Smita.
3) He is in Kota.

Kota. The abode of study. A place which breathes competition. A utopia for IIT-JEE preparation.

Akash gets selected in Gurukul, the premier IIT-JEE coaching institute of India in Kota. He loves to
dive in the swimming pool of books. He gets into the company of bright and frolicsome pre-IITians
and this marks the beginning of his mischievous roller coaster ride in Kota.

As a result, his APQs i.e. Additional Practice Questions turn into Always Pending Questions. He
tastes various flavours of Kota- movies at Om Cineplex, delicious viands at Sangam mess, cricket
matches at MCG, exhaustive classes and titanic homework of Gurukul.

When it comes to girls, Akash knows only this much-

‘The most complex equation of the world is-
Girls= what are they up to?’
He initially hates Smita aka ‘Yes Sir’, for she seems to be infallible in doubt sessions. But one day,
when the virus of love bites him, everything gets changed.

Can Kota help him realize his dreams? Would he get his love? Would he grab a seat of prestigious
IITs?

‘It’s my last chance to prove myself. People see results. They don’t care for your efforts.’
