Actor-director Anupam Kher recently interviewed candidates seeking entry to his acting school ‘Actor Prepares' in Ahmedabad.

The interviews and auditions were held at Cambay Grand, the centrally-located 5-star hotel of the Cambay hospitality group.

"I believe that acting, like any craft, can be taught, learnt and perfected, " said Kher, who has won innumerable awards in a career spanning 25 years encompassing almost 400 films.

‘Actor Prepares' opened last year in the city after establishing a presence in Mumbai, Chandigarh and London.

Two batches of students have already passed out after completing the three-month fulltime course.

Apart from the fulltime acting programme, ‘Actor Prepares' in Ahmedabad has also been conducting workshops for teachers, dancers and teenagers.

Kher will be taking classes when the course commences.

Apart from Kher, the school has a trained full-time faculty of teachers to teach the craft of Acting. Other subjects, which will be taught, reflecting the holistic approach of the Actor Prepares programme, are Yoga, Dance, Martial Arts, Voice and Diction etc.

Actor Prepares Ahmedabad is sited on a landscaped 2.5 acre campus on the Ahmedabad-Gandhinagar highway opposite Nirma University.
