Lee Strasberg Theatre & Film Institute comes to India
 

Mumbai: The renowned Lee Strasberg Theatre & Film Institute has arrived in India and it has been made possible by Rahul Rawail and Ahmed Ahsan with.

Speaking about this move, Rawail informed, “A lot of people I know, including Ranbir Kapoor, went to the U.S. to get trained in acting at Lee Strasberg. Besides getting the visa and admission in the institute, you need to be financially sound to realize your dreams. I was discussing this with Ahmed and that triggered off everything. Ahmed got in touch with them (Strasberg), one thing led to another and we shook hands within a very short period.”

In the beginning, Lee Strasberg will start operating in Mumbai and Hyderabad in its first phase. Mumbai is also incidentally the place where Bollywood is based. Hyderabad is chosen because Rawail and Ahmed want to tap the South film industry. Rawail added, “There’s enormous talent out there that needs to be tapped. Also, the South industry is equally huge, so why not?”
