Who was your favourite teacher in school or college and why?


My paati (grandmother) has always been my favourite teacher. She is a headmistress in a school and also teaches History and Geography. Since I would study the last minute, she would summarize the whole chapter for me the day before the exam! Isn’t that cute…

If you were not an actor, would you have become a teacher?
I would never say never. But, I don’t have too much patience and can't enforce authority well. I would let my students do whatever they like and they would probably bully me (smiles).

In school, were you a front bencher or a last bencher?
Last bencher… because of my height (laughs).

Is there any punishment in school that you will remember for the rest of your life?
Yes. We had to wear ribbons to school on our plaits and if we didn't, we would get a remark in the school calendar book. I got this huge one-meter ribbon. Whoever used to forget to wear the ribbons, I would cut from that one-meter long ribbon and would give them. When the teachers found out, they made me wear ‘sutli’ (rope) on my head as a punishment for a week! That became a fashion statement then and everyone started wearing rope on their braids (laughs heartily).
