Expressing the enthusiasm for the show among his employees, Jain in the letter said the step has been taken to avoid mass bunks by his staff later this week. "We have taken this initiative not just to save an attack on our emails with false leaves, see mass bunks and numbers being switched off but because we know Sometimes Moments of Chill be The Best Pills for Energy At Your Work," the letter read. "So grab the popcorn, and be prepared to wave a final bye to our most loved professor and the entire caste," it said.
The company also shared a full-day streaming schedule beginning 10 am to 9 pm. In its response, the official Twitter account of Netflix India shared the firm's letter to its employees and termed the idea fantastic'.
