Nawazuddin Siddiqui teaches acting to aspiring actors

Many of the actors and celebrities are indulging in their hobbies to make the most of their lockdown time. Actor Nawazuddin Siddiqui is utilizing this time to teach acting to the aspiring actors at Celebrity School. There are five courses in the online program that will be carried out by experts in each field. Nawaz will take on the acting course, while the film making course will be carried out by Madhur Bhandarkar. Shaan will take over the singing course, Sabira Merchant will manage the communication course and Siddharth Prabhakar will teach entrepreneurship.

Though this program started in September last year, the artists are dedicating more of their time in the lockdown period. This stay-at-home time has enabled them to engage with the students directly.  Unlike earlier, where each class was prerecorded to avoid any hindrance in the schedule, the artists now are interacting with their students via live-sessions.

 In an interview regarding this program with Madhur Bhandarkar, he said:

“For any aspiring artiste, access to a good mentor can fuel his passion and help [hone] his talent. In these unprecedented times, the online academy has ensured that the learning continues for young talent.”

Another mentor of the program, Siddharth Prabhakar said:

“The dreams of many kids die a slow death owing to lack of affordability and accessibility to courses that will help them build a career in the show business. Last year, I decided to develop a platform with the help of some leading celebrities who can directly share their knowledge with the students.”
