Acting

Hi Chandu!
You will need to complete your 10+2 from a recognized board of education in order to be eligible to apply for the certificate course in Acting. As of now, you are not eligible.

Hi Ankush!
Some institutes do not mention their fee explicitly. I would advise you to contact the college directly.

Hi Rajat!
Acting schools are mostly expensive only. Even a short term course of 3 months might cost you around 60-70K at least. You can rather get associated with some theater group and learn the skills of acting from them. Joining a theater group will not be a cheaper option but will also enhance your skills as a whole.

Hi Sejal!
You can pursue both the courses provided both are not degree courses. One degree and one diploma/certificate course is allowed to be pursued and is legal.

Around 3.5 Lacs for 6 months course.

Hi Aarohi!

You can also refer to this link in case you want to pursue acting as a full-time regular course: https://www.shiksha.com/mass-communication-media/film-tv/articles/top-10-acting-schools-in-india-blogId-8822.

Making it as an actor takes talent, but pure luck plays a major role in getting your big break. You might be tempted to jump right into the audition process, but if you are a beginner with no training, the best thing you can do is find some sort of acting class. Most actors have spent years training to become even good enough for small parts. In addition to attending acting classes and/or workshops, you'll need to get some headshots made and begin preparing a portfolio.
