Teachers day

We all like honouring and acknowledging our teachers and mentors on Teacher's Day in our own unique ways. Some of us mark the day by reuniting with our mentors, while others believe in sending warm wishes via a heartfelt message or post on social media.

And just like many other aspects of our life that Bollywood has influenced, there are those characters—such as those portrayed by Amitabh Bachchan, Aamir Khan, Hrithik Roshan, and others that have eternally etched themselves into our memories.

We still think back on these teacher-mentor roles that some of the renowned performers named above portrayed particularly on Teacher's Day. Bollywood performers have masterfully represented teachers in a number of films, presenting them as witty, disciplined, strict, friendly, and mentors.

Here, we explore a few of these actors' performances that had a profound effect on us.
