Veteran actress Shabana Azmi, who is currently preparing for her upcoming movie 'Chalk n Duster', recently spotted in a local train. We were told that the actress travelled by train to get first hand experience of how it feels to be a commuter in jam packed compartment on a weekday afternoon.
Since 'Chalk n Duster' is based on teachers, Azmi travelled from Andheri to Virar with her entourage to see how it feels to be a middle class teacher, to endure their pain and struggle. She also got in a heart-to-heart chat with a few fellow commuters and learnt about their daily endeavours to reach work in time. It was a refreshing journey for the former National award winning actress.
'Chalk n Duster' also stars Juhi Chawla, Zarina Wahab, Divya Dutta in major roles along with Anupam Kher, Jackie Shroff, Sameer Soni and Arya Babbar in pivotal roles. Written by Ranjeev Varma and directed by Jayant Gilatar, the film is about teachers, the education system and the commercialization of the system in the country. The music is composed by Sandesh Shandilya, while the lyrics for the film are penned by the seasoned Javed Akhtar. The movie is produced by Subhash Singh and Sonali Singh under the 3S Creations banner.
