But what I request u is , along with your journey video and how do u doing remote job , do some video on how to get skilled up and what type of content should watch or simple like "road map" , because so many students are watching ur video and the students who are not studied in IIT also there , for them they don't so much knowledge or guide.
    So please make videos on how to learn and excel it .
