‘So relatable’

While many CBSE students sided with Neekita and agreed with all the points she made about Hindi speaking and ICSE students choosing to listen to English songs including We Don’t Anymore by Charlie Puth, there were many who posted explanations. Irrespective of the board they support, thousands of internet users united to laud the Instagram user for making a video which is “so relatable”. The students from both ICSE and CBSE have often indulged in a war of words ranging from the difference in the syllabus and even the kind of examinations that the board provides. However, many followers commented under Neekita’s video saying she took a dig on CBSE and ICSE ‘equally at the same time’. 

One Instagram user wrote, "See CBSE schools just want to prepare us for the future they are not forcing us to speak English everywhere. Only they want is just to speak English in schools so that we can prepare nicely for exams or for writing good essays, stories, etc." But someone else noted, "Are normal funny video hai ve Kyun dono ko compare kr rhe ho".
