Mumbai (Maharashtra) [India], November 19 : Veteran actor Manoj Joshi on Wednesday attended the launch of the Mumbai centre of the National School of Drama.
On this occasion, Manoj Joshi and Chittranjan Tripathi, Director of NSD, emphasised the significance of extending NSD's reach to Mumbai.
Speaking to ANI, Manoj Joshi said, "This is truly a moment of great joy. Mumbai, being the heart of the drama, television, and film industry, makes it especially significant that the National School of Drama now has a centre here."
