How was your experience of running an acting academy? It was a good journey to handle a business venture, something which Nisha and I had never done before. We did many activities and kept our academy in the limelight. I am glad that we managed to teach something valuable to our students. | ||||

Did you expect your academy to close soon? Not at all. I never expected that we would have to shut shop in just one and half year but I am happy that so many news channels covered our different activities. What do you think were the reasons for your academy shutting down? No comments please. | ||||

Which RIRO activity do you love the most and why? We did many interactive activities like street plays on Labor Day, how to save our natural resources etc. We also did two plays which was again a completely different experience altogether and for all our activities, we got good responses as well. |
What is more difficult to run an acting academy or to act? I feel to run any business or academy is challenging because we need to spend more time in the business. While in acting, we need to be present on the sets till our scenes are done. In any business, one has to always take care of many aspects which includes staff, and other things |
You hosted a farewell party recently for your students too. It was nice as some of faculty members like Amardeep Jha, Rajneesh Bisht had come and we enjoyed a cake cutting ceremony with our students. We only invited the RIRO family so it was fun. |
What advise you would give to all aspiring actors and your students from the academy? Just be confident in your talent but at same time hard work and dedication also matters. I want to tell to all my students from the academy that do well and be prepared for the tough competition |
