On this Teacher's Day, Sony SAB artists recall fond memories of their teachers

•    Adish Vaidya who plays Vikram Saran in Pushpa Impossible shares, “I’ve celebrated Teacher's Day several times in the past. Before becoming an actor, I was a professional cricketer and received my training from numerous coaches. I fondly recall how much I enjoyed visiting my first coach's house with Idli and Sambar on Teacher's Day, and we swapped multiple stories on that occasion. When I wished him, he had a huge smile on his face! I still try to wish my teachers through texts, but don't really get a chance to involve myself in the day's celebrations anymore. However, I still feel inspired after meeting certain people. Another precious memory which coincides with Teacher’s Day is of the time when I won and scored 100 runs in a tournament, which my coach considered the greatest gift of all time.”

•    Dharm Yoddha Garud's Faisal Khan who portrays the role of Garud said,” Since childhood, I remember celebrating Teacher’s Day every year at school. It was about buying flowers and chocolates for our teachers and decorating the classroom blackboard with other classmates to make our teacher feel special. There are many lessons which my gurus have taught me, and I’ll be forever grateful for it. My greatest guru is my mother. She has guided me through all my highs and lows and has given me all the love and support I could possibly need. She is the constant source of positivity, and I can’t ever thank her enough. I’d also like to wish a very Happy Teacher’s Day to my source of inspiration, my dance guru Shreekant Ahire. He has been a guiding light in my journey of dancing and has encouraged me so much for pursuing my hobby and making a larger life win out of it.”

•    Actress Pariva Pranati who essays the role of Vandana Wagle on Sony SAB's Wagle ki Duniya shares, "My deepest gratitude and respect to all the teachers who have contributed towards my growth. A huge part of my success is credited to them. A very Happy Teacher’s Day to all the people who played the role of teachers in my life, my parents, colleagues and also a few friends. Great values and life lessons from them have made my life richer and fuller. A very Happy Teacher's Day to all the teachers who continue to nurture budding minds every day!"

•    Chinmayee Salvi who essays the role of Sakhi Wagle on Sony SAB's Wagle Ki Duniya comments, "My teachers been instrumental in the kind of person I have become. Teacher's Day in my school would be celebrated in a special way. Senior students would dress in sarees and become teachers to the younger students for that day, teaching them different subjects and trying to do our best. I would like to wish all the hardworking teachers who are molding young minds to be the best versions of themselves - a very Happy Teacher's Day!!"

•    Karuna Pandey who portrays Pushpa Patel in Pushpa Impossible says,” One of my fondest memories of Teacher's Day goes back to Udhampur in Jammu and Kashmir. As a 12th grade student, I actually taught my juniors on September 5 as an English teacher! Donned in a red sari, experiencing this memorable occasion from the lens of our educators; this is definitely the best memory I have associated with Teacher's Day! The lessons taught by our teachers are timeless. In fact, I learn a lot from Rashi on set for that matter. Talking about my favorite teacher, it would be my Kathak instructor - her dedication and impeccable style of teaching truly left a mark on me!
