Aftab Shivdasani wants lessons on character building in educational institutions
Mumbai : Actor Aftab Shivdasani wants educational institutions to host sessions on character building.
"Education is a must for all. Schools, colleges impart knowledge about maths, science and business. I strongly believe there should be a 30-minute class daily that emphasises on formation of 'character'," Aftab, who was last seen in "Great Grand Masti", tweeted on Monday.
"By theoretically and practically educating young developing minds, I think the future of any nation will be bright and not only move in a stable economical direction but also a moral and ethical direction as well," he added.

Taking up challenges gives Yami a high
Actress Yami Gautam, who is gearing up for the release of the forthcoming film "Sarkar 3", says the film has given her an opportunity to showcase a very different side of her. She says taking up such challenges gives her a kick.
The 28-year-old actress made her Bollywood debut with filmmaker Shoojit Sircar's "Vicky Donor", where she essayed a simple girl-next-door.
Earlier this year, she played a visually impaired girl in "Kaabil" and she is now gearing up for the release of "Sarkar 3", where she will be seen playing a grey character.
"'Sarkar 3' gave me the opportunity to explore and showcase a very different side of me. That was the most exciting part. While 'Kaabil' was challenging in its own way as I played a visually impaired girl, 'Sarkar 3' had its own tests too. It gives me a different high to take up challenges for my characters," Yami said in a statement.
Directed by Ram Gopal Varma, "Sarkar 3" features Amitabh Bachchan, Manoj Bajpayee, Jackie Shroff, Ronit Roy and Amit Sadh in pivotal roles.
