A streaming platform will give this subject the reach it deserves: Prakash Jha's 'Pareeksha: The Final Test' to release on ZEE5

Filmmaker Prakash Jha's new project Pareeksha: The Final Test will go directly to OTT, bypassing a traditional theatrical release.

"The film is inspired by real events and people. Shri Abhayanand is an IPS officer and educationist who, while serving as the police chief in Bihar's Naxal infested areas, came across kids in the villages who were so bright thanks to native wisdom that they inspired him to begin coaching them to crack the tough IIT- Their success had a great impact on the crime-infested badlands of Bihar," Jha said.
