Actor Sharad Kelkar, who plays Arya in the television show Tumm Se Tumm Tak, expressed gratitude to teachers and mentors who encouraged him to learn, explore and strive for excellence on the occasion of Teachers’ Day.
Reflecting on the role of educators in shaping children, Kelkar said people often understand the importance of teachers only after leaving school and looking back on their formative years.
“When you’re a child, you don’t really realise the significance of your teachers. School is mostly about your friends, studies, the innocence and joy of childhood. It is only after you leave school and that journey comes to an end that you truly understand how important it is for a child to have good teachers and mentors,” he said.
The actor said he felt fortunate to have encountered inspiring teachers and mentors throughout his school and college years as well as his acting career.
“Through school, college and later in my acting journey, I have met some wonderful teachers and mentors who always encouraged me to learn, explore and try new things,” he said.
Kelkar also reflected on his experience as a father, saying he was happy to see his daughter receive guidance and encouragement from her teachers.
He extended his heartfelt gratitude to his school teachers and every mentor who had helped shape both his personality and career as an actor.
