Class
Class is a new teenage crime thriller show from Netflix which is an Indian remake of the popular Spanish show Elite. The Indian variant has been described by Netflix as, “Three students from a poor neighborhood join an exclusive high school for Delhi elite where dark secrets and rumors ultimately lead to murder.” This is essentially juxtaposing the plot from the Spanish version of the show into the new show which is set in Delhi instead of Madrid.
