Nimrat Kaur gets candid about her character in School of Lies, this Teacher’s Day!



The walls of this boarding school echoes lies and conspiracies - Disney+ Hotstar’s series School of Lies showcases the journey of teenagers in a boarding school.


Wrapped in the intense mystery of a missing child, this gritty thriller is headlined by Nimrat Kaur who plays the role of a school counselor which every child longs to have in their school and college.


She is the ‘favorite teacher’ and is like family away from family for the students at the boarding school

Behind every successful student, there is always a teacher who believed in them, inspired them, and encouraged them to their best in school and at life.


The relationship between a student and a teacher is defined well beyond the classroom and this is exactly what is replicated in the show between Miss Nandita and her students. Nimrat Kaur shares her favorite teachers day memory and her shooting experience as a teacher for the show


Sharing her thoughts, Nimrat Kaur said, “Teachers form an important part of a child’s life and while we celebrate our teachers, recognizing and thanking the people who are key in helping us grow. I remember celebrating Teacher's Day with such gusto - dressing up, performances, cards, roses and celebrations for our mentors in the best way possible. School was fun because of them, in a way.


But in today's time what's amazing to see is how teachers focus not only on students' academic well-being but mental as well. It's an added responsibility and they do it so well, without complaints. With School of Lies, I got a chance to step into their shoes in a way. While it was different than a subject teacher, dealing with young children is a different ball game altogether. Kudos to all of them who do it all day, everyday with such grace!”
