CLASSROOM THEATRE Masterclass with NASEERUDDIN SHAH

A Masterclass with the actor, legend, human being and teacher NASEERUDDIN SHAH.
Celebrating 20th July, as the birthday of the legend, a humble gift from the NOMADS archive, 2017.
Conducted as part of the Film Appreciation course specially designed by mii for the final year batch of the National School of Drama students, hosted by FTII in 2017. It was gracious of Naseer sa'b to accept the invite.
Am glad we could make a record of the historic moment, in spite of the human challenges and bureaucratic hurdles involved. Mii gratitude to mii wonderful students Sandeep Yadav & Satyajeet Shobha Shriram for being a sport! Thanks are also due to the then Director Bhupendra Kainthola. I have tried to preserve the essence of the whole through the edit.
Collaborative acts often always have their rich rewards. We now have, what is- an invaluable archive of the moment, to be accessed many times over, for students and practitioners and all who care to learn anew every day of our life and work.
PS: Am sure you will excuse the rough edges of bad sound connection of the cordless microphone... etc. :)

You are not actor nor wanted to be one but still here ....watching this video completely...that's the power of this man

Enjoying a free masterclass from Naseeruddin Shah while sitting in my room in Karachi, Pakistan. The power of the internet.

[@smsarit3]

Neither am I an actor nor do I plan on becoming one in the near future. But this relates to me way beyond my imagination. It's probably not just an "acting masterclass", but rather a "life masterclass". Grateful for the upload. Hope to watch more such from other maestros as well🙏🏼

[@nomadsfilmschool]

Good to hear that. Justifies all the invisible struggle and hard work behind the making of this video…

Theatre isn't just a medium of entertainment. It changes you in ways you can never imagine. That's what i've learned in the past 8 years as a theatre artist.

@@KrishanKumar-ec1ch you mean what form of theatre? that would be drama/play type (proscenium). i'm an actor and prop maker in our team.

[@jarmangill5911]

Naseer Sir’s Blunt honesty and being real is a rare in many actors . Even the thing he loves most he still hates lot of things about it . 😊

[@ppg9999]

Why is this video having only 200k views? This should have viewed in millions. All lokhandwala guys should watch this

[@suchoudh]

reminded of special once in lifetime opportunities to get trained by amazing people . In my school days we would sometime have a visiting person who would talk about something totally tangent to books and tests and as if school never existed. The lecture would have even the backbenchers in rapt attention. Loved those.

[@dhruvsengupta6566]

Whenever he says something I listen with fascination ❤ I got a chance to meet Naseer Sahab only once at Ahmed Khan Sahab's birthday party in Bhayandar flat in Mumbai. In those days, we all were the next door neighbors of Khan sahib. Charu and I sang songs that night. Apart from this, we met many times in Delhi, sometimes in NSD and sometimes in Shriram Center, but never got a chance to talk🙏

[@dharmendrasingh45]

I have worked with three people from this class in a feature film as a producer ! But today after watching this master class, I realised how these classes have shaped them not just as an actor but also as human being ! They are the people you want to be with.

‘Shouldering the burden of someone else’s creative imagination … that’s exactly what an actor does!’ Thanks a lot for uploading the video; it was a pleasure listening to him. I quite liked the idea of having a round up session the next day to get an individual feedback from all students.

[@nomadsfilmschool]

So happy to know, Asit. And thanks for the footnote on the next day session! It took quite an effort from all of us there :) The idea was to register the mark left on each NSD student for whom the class, was arranged in the first place.

Watching this as an aspiring Filmmaker (writer and director to be specific). Knowledge about acting will be beneficial for filmmakers too. And that too when you are learning from veteran like Naseeruddin Shah.
