To be an film artist, you should have knowledge of what you need to do when you are on ‘floor’ of a film set.  That’s why we have started our institute in a studio.   So our students spent maximum time on the sets in fact from day one and are guided and mentored by renowned technicians which is a morale booster”.

There is no language barrier, therefore those aspirants who are shy or have difficulty in communicating in English or Hindi can converse in their mother tongue Marathi. after all we all are proud Maharashtrains, ” Jadhav elaborated.
