Learning that is actual learned from this series:

1. Even a Smartest of a Person can be a Fool under the Right Circumstances:

  •  It is shown in the series itself as to how a talented and smart wrestler named “PUMMI” starts blindly trusting and believing in the baba when he abruptly showed up for helping her when she was low and vulnerable.

  • Police are supposed to help people whether they are celebrity or commoners, they should treat us equally as law and orders are the same of anybody but unfortunately, some of them bow down their head in front of politicians and the people who provide a huge amount of money to them other than the law and order.

3. Not all Aashrams are made of Prayers; Some are made of Players:

  • The brutal truth of India is that the people who blindly believe that aashrams by these saints are made for the comfort of the people and they are the true preachers of the god are most of the time gets trapped into the felonious activities conducted by the babas.
  •  In the name of brief and spirituality, these people use women according to their needs and pleasures and treat them as in object which is why it is the aashrams are not made of prayers it is made by players. It is made by a person who robs other people in the name of god and peace.

 4. Public Properties are sold to Large Corporations by Indian Politicians to generate a heavy amount of Income from them:

  • This is no news to people that powerful people like politicians sell public properties to builders and large corporations to make money out of it.
  • The property that was supposed to be publics gets under the ownership of these moneymen at a cheap cost and the public who deserves it sleeps on the road. It is also shown in the series how an MLA sells a public property to the corporations to make money out of it as a bribe. 

 5. Law and order are underrated by the people who believe in Babas and Godmen:
