For most of us school life makes for the best years of our lives. These memories are something we always cherish and hold close to our hearts. Especially the PT classes, where we got the opportunity to blow off some steam and play some games under the sun, which was honestly a much-needed break. Actors later and students first, which is why the cast of Chhalaang got extremely nostalgic on the film's sets. Here is what the cast and director had to share about what they were like back in the day, in their PT class and their rapport with their PT teachers.
Reminiscing the fond memories with his PT teacher, filmmaker Hansal Mehta shares, "My PT teacher was a guy called Lenny Gonsalves. He was there before I joined the school and much after I left school. He was still there when my kids were ready to go to school. He died a few years back. I remember Lenny used to have a ruler, he would tell everybody to take their palms out and he would run to hit everybody on their palms because nobody would take PT seriously. "I will give you one Phaat!" that was his line. I recall, he would tell us to take three rounds of the school ground and for three years I used to give him a letter from a doctor saying I have appendicitis. Since I was from a family of doctors, I forged one letter and did not do sports for three years. Somewhere, this film reminds me that if I had taken that running seriously, I would have been a little more fit."
