Here is a film with some moral teaching! ‘Paathshaala’ I do not know whether it will touch the issue of education mafia’s or not – better left on directors like Prakash Jha, Sudhir Mishra and Shayam Benegal – who are stretching their reach across the country. The deteriorating education system in rural India is somewhat a result of their hold on the education system.

Coming to ‘Paathshaala’ this could be an eye opener for parents who push their kids to extent of undeliverable point, killing even their interest and art.

The film stars Nana Patekar, Shahid Kapoor and Ayesha Takia in key roles. The films tries to asks many questions regarding the sanctity of education system of our country – where a kindergarten fee is more than the normal wage of a middle class parents – and wrong doings, shortcomings of schools today.

Paathshaala also have child artists Swini Khara, Avika Gor, Ali Haji & Dwij Narendra Yadav.

The film is slated to release in April and first look posters says it beautifully – Attendance this April COMPULSORY.

The film is directed by Milind Ukey & produced by Shaira Khan (Paperdoll Entertainment). The film’s story and screenplay are by Ahmed Khan and music by Hanif Shaikh will be released under the banner of Eros International.
