Set to feature in a prominent role in Prakash Jha's upcoming ZEE5 release, Pareeksha, Priyanka Bose says the filmmaker's knowledge about the education system makes him best suited to explore the subject on screen. "[He has] clarity on the matter, and his understanding of where the story comes from, is on point," says the actor of the film that follows a rickshaw puller from Bihar whose dream is to provide quality education to his son.
"A re-look at the structure [was long overdue]," she says in the wake of reports of the Indian education system undergoing an overhaul. "It has taken us a long time to get here; to [include] specialisations, and put emphasis on the interest of the child. I am unclear [if] the new [system] will bridge the gap between the privileged and the underprivileged, but let us not forget that thousands are fighting for a place in this chaos, for their children," she added.
