Naseeruddin Shah Slams NSD Training: "Only Failures Come Back To Teach"

• Veteran actor Naseeruddin Shah critically assessed the National School of Drama (NSD)'s acting education, stating he learned little about the craft there.
• Shah, an alumnus, claimed there was no acting teacher "worth the name" at NSD during his time, a sentiment echoed by his wife Ratna Pathak Shah.
• He suggested that those who return to teach at NSD do so out of obligation, calling them "failures."
• Despite his criticism, Shah continues to work with NSD students, viewing it as a duty and a learning process for himself.
• Shah's remarks follow recent public debates, including being disinvited from a Mumbai University event.
