Naseeruddin Shah was in Aligarh recently visiting his alma mater, Aligarh Muslim University (AMU) where he studied English literature. The varsity's vice-chancellor, Zameeruddin Shah, is Naseer's brother.


It is widely believed that Naseer ran away from home to become an actor, but it was thanks to his English professors at AMU that he got hooked to reading literary classics. This further fuelled his interest in staging the masterpieces. At 17, he knew he wanted to be an actor. The professors even helped him seek admission at the National School of Drama, New Delhi. But his brother Zameeruddin to stick to the runaway theory. Simply because there is more drama to it - that's what Naseer always wanted to do.
