The upcoming film Chalk n Duster, presented by Surani emphasises on establishing Pictures, teaching as one of the most dignified and ethical professions. Today, the nobility of the vocation is fast losing its value. With this outing, director Jayant Gilatar has decided to take on the current education scenario to make people aware about the plight of teachers and educationists in our country. The film, produced by Amin Surani, highlights the drawbacks and the hardships that teachers face in the present education system. “Chalk n Duster has a strong concept and will touch you deeply. It is a fresh story about issues which an individual can relate to easily. I was fortunate enough to get six powerful women of our industry - Shabana Azmi, Juhi Chawla Mehta, Divya Dutta, Upasna Singh, Zarina Wahab and Richa Chadha to be a part of my film,“ says the director. The movie, that releases worldwide on January 15, also stars Girish Karnad, Samir Soni, Aarya Babbar, Jackie Shroff and Rishi Kapoor, who will be seen in a special appearance.
