Bombaycasting.com launches acting classes

Acting portal Bombaycasting.com, launched in May last year, has now commenced its acting course.

Registration for the acting classes, which will be of three-month duration, will begin online from Tuesday and the first batch will start here from March 1.

The classes will focus on acting and personality development. The faculty comprises actors from National School of Drama and the Film and Television Institute of India.

"Our acting classes will be authentic... not like others who claim to have made stars. According to me, nobody can make stars, we can only train actors... not make anybody's destiny," Bombaycasting.com founder Sunil Bohra, also a filmmaker, said in a statement.

There will be three batches to begin with. Each batch will have 10 students.

The toppers of each batch will automatically become verified members of vertical one of Bombay Casting agency, which will manage their career for three years.

The course will have master class with directors, including National Award-winning director Hansal Mehta. There will be shoot visit and post-production studio visit as part of the course as well.

After completion of the course, the institute will give one-year free counselling to the talent.
