I would like to know, if the acting schools provide the students with any job gurantee or atleast some valuable contacts?
July 28th, 2008 at 10:40 pm

kindly guide me in right way
i am student of class 11th and 17 years old
August 24th, 2008 at 5:14 am
Sayantani, I do not know of any online acting school.
I think it is always better to learn acting from an institute because you will interact with like minded people and also get good placement.
August 24th, 2008 at 5:22 am
Shivam,acting is a great career option,but you should first finish school and then make your research on the various acting courses.
September 23rd, 2008 at 2:11 pm

hey ! i would like to be a good actor, but there is a problem…actually i don’t know whether i should choose this field as a carrier or not…but i am sure about one thing that i am crazy about this field…i can do any amount of work to succeed in this field….anyways i am an software engineer..plz suggest what should i do…
October 17th, 2008 at 12:56 am
Hi Anand,
I feel acting is a good career option.
Looking at the media boom,the industry will always require trained/qualified actors.
You never know when you make it big by getting a break in a film or a TV serial!
Since you are a software engineer,you can always take a break from work and take up a short course for 3 or 6 months to see how things work out.

Hi Mohit,
There is a high demand for talented actors for TV serials and Films.
One should always take proper training before looking for work.You can choose a long term or a short term course,its your choice.
You should apply in more than one institute.
You should also enquire about the placements.
All the best.

One should always complete graduation first.A degree gives you a sense of security.
You can always pursue a PG Diploma course in Filmmaking after graduation.

Rajesh, I guess graduation will not be a requirement for most of the short term courses.
Since you are looking for an institute in Pune,do consider the 6 months course at Framework academy.

which has more scope acting or film making?
please tell.
March 21st, 2009 at 8:44 am
heres my no
9953109822
March 22nd, 2009 at 12:00 am
Well I feel that filmmaking has more scope since it covers all aspects of movie making.
Initially, even Shahrukh Khan wanted to be a director.
Imran Khan (Jaane Tu Ya Jaane Na) pursued a course in filmmaking in the US.
And of course Farhan Akther (Rock On and Luck by Chance) directed DCH, Lakshya, and Don, before making his acing debut.
March 22nd, 2009 at 12:40 am
thanx,so which is the best for doing a course in filmmaking
March 22nd, 2009 at 4:35 am
There are many options.
Most the above mentioned institutes offer courses in filmmaking as well.
Some of the best filmmaking institutes in India are FTII, Satyajit Ray Film and Television Institute and Whistling Woods.
You can also visit http://www.filmmaking.co.in for information on film schools.
March 23rd, 2009 at 11:11 am
sir,can u tell me on what basis does whistling woods select students and what chances i have?
March 24th, 2009 at 12:24 am
Well, I am not an expert on this but guess admission at Whistling Woods will be easier than FTII. It is always good to apply at 2 or 3 places.
You can visit the website of Whistling Woods and go to the application information page under Admissions for more information.

Well, Mohit all the above acting schools are good.
It is up to you whether you want to enroll for a short term course or a long term course.
Short list 2 or 3 places and ask them about the placements, faculty and facilities.
If you have the talent you will definitely make it big.

July 8th, 2009 at 8:45 am
Going to an acting school will definitely help in getting work. Always contact the placement department of the acting school before taking admission.

And i also want to continue my studies incase i dont become an actor, SO PLEASE HELP ME, WILL BE PATIENTLY WAITING FOR UR RESPONSE. THANK YOU
October 11th, 2009 at 11:57 pm
Shravan, I am glad that you are also serious about your studies.
You can enroll for a part time course at college level so that your studies are not affected.
You can also wait till your studies are over and then pursue a full time course.

i m thinking baout only taking a 6month course at anupan khers acting school, and then make my portfolio and give to different ads and directors and stuff
October 12th, 2009 at 11:33 pm
Cool. That is a good option.
October 14th, 2009 at 5:47 pm
do u guys think that there will be a indian acting school in america?
October 14th, 2009 at 11:43 pm
Good question Shravan. I am quite sure that will happen soon. Bollywood is establishing a global presence at a tremendous rate.
Because bollywood movies are different, there needs to be an acting school that specializes in training students for a career in the Indian film industry.
October 19th, 2009 at 2:08 pm
dont u guys think that getting into bollywood is 95% luck?
October 19th, 2009 at 11:34 pm

October 19th, 2009 at 11:52 pm
I would say it is 50 % luck. You also need to have talent to make a place for yourself in the industry.
October 23rd, 2009 at 4:39 pm

October 23rd, 2009 at 11:47 pm

is 25 year a old age to start modeling/acting? cuz i wanna finish my studies first in america. wht do u guys suggest i should do?
November 2nd, 2009 at 11:41 pm
I think 25 is a great age to start acting.
Hritik was 26 at the time of Kaho Na Pyar Hai. Ranbir Kapoor was 25 when he made his debut as a hero in Saawariya. Imran Khan was also 25 at the time of Jaane Tu Ya Jaane Na.
Even SRK was around that age when he joined films as a leading actor.

hello sir,
i want to be a good actor but i don`t want to go mumbai. because everyone tell me that it is not well place for live.
please tell me is this true?
December 24th, 2009 at 11:45 pm
Venkatesh, I don’t have the exact fee details.
You can contact the institutes for more info on the fees and financial assistance.
Both acting schools are good, it will be worth the money spent.
December 24th, 2009 at 11:48 pm
Jatin, I do not agree with that. Mumbai is a great place, it is the place to be in if you want to join the film industry…

Dear sir/ madam
I am in a great dielemma pls help me as an elder member of my family.
Actually i belong to a very middle class family and i m doing mechanical engg(18yrs) from raipur.
I am extremely interested in making my career in film line as an actor/director.
someimes it feels as if i m born for this field only.
My heart says do train yourself in some reputed college but my mind says first give a status and security to my family.
I think i have a lot of potensial in me.
Everybody (including my family members too)think that i will spoil my career in film line.
Everyone around me just demoralises me and i am a bit scared about my future.
I told you everything now please suggest me whether i should live for my parents or fulfill my aim of life.
please do reply soon.
thank you
