September 5 marks Teachers Day. Every year, we celebrate the birth anniversary of Dr. Sarvapalli Radhakrishnan for his invaluable contribution to the society of teachers in India. On Teachers Day 2023, lets see Bollywood actors who portrayed unique teachers on screen.

1. Shah Rukh Khan: Mohabattein
We know teachers who teach math, science, history, and more such educational subjects. But seldom do we meet a teacher who teaches and preaches about love.Raj Aryan (Shah Rukh Khan) was a big mush of love. A student of Gurukul challenges the most rigid principal in the history of education, and guess who won? Love.

2. Boman Irani: 3 Idiots
While the movie was about three best friends, we felt it was Boman Irani's character, Viru Shahastrabuddhe, who came to his senses after being an idiot his whole life.A principal who is ambidextrous, whose teaching language is mugging up, and who is a living example of competitiveness - could he be more unique?

3. Rani Mukerji: Hichki
Who knew a woman with a passion for teaching and Tourette syndrome would become an elite school's most beloved teacher? Rani Mukerji went on to show how one can overcome all the weaknesses only if they focus on their strengths.
4. Sushmita Sen: Main Hoon Na
Main Hoon Na features Sushmita Sen as Miss Chandani, an elegant and caring teacher whose charm and grace captivate her students. Her bond with Shahrukh Khan's character, Major Ram, adds an emotional depth to the story, highlighting the supportive and protective nature of a teacher.
