When new-age director Adarsh Eshwarappa turned lecturer

While the trailer for his debut flick,

Shuddhi

, has gone viral,

Adarsh H Eshwarappa

was busy recently winning hearts elsewhere. This he did by turning lecturer, when he addressed a packed auditorium of students in

Mangaluru

’s

St Aloysius College

.

Adarsh spoke to students of visual media and communication about the subjects best known to him — the various aspects of filmmaking. The students were glued in rapt attention as they sought to hear from the man whose story is in itself an inspiring one — Adarsh spoke about his humble beginnings (he is the son of an auto driver and school teacher) and about pursuing his passion for filmmaking by saving up enough money to enroll in the

Los Angeles Film School

. He also taught the students about the art and skill of filmmaking.
