The Great Orator of Asian Academy of Film& Television

We were late for Induction Course in the college. The first session was over. Two of us treaded silently into the hall cramped with students from various courses. My friends and I were like lost birds during migration and landed accidentally in India.   Neither of us spoke a word of Hindi. With our broken English, we manage to bargain for seats. He appeared dressed impeccably in suits, he wore a cool glasses. He was well built middle age man. He was fair man with charismatic smile. The trimmed beard above upper lip makes him more attractive. The deans and professors followed him like an obedient servants. He was our proprietor cum director. The moment he sits on the table, he quoted Hindi proverb which sent all students ‘wah, wah’ along with thunderous smile. Students thunderously clapped at his every word. Then he started talking in English, “the thing of quality comes at a cheaper prize,” he quoted his own saying. He then went on praising his own college and initiatives.
