Meet Gajendra Chauhan - FTII's New 'Talented' Chairman

When BJP member Gajendra Chauhan, who played 'Yudhishthir' in “Mahabharat”, was appointed as the FTII chief, students protested saying his appointment was politically motivated. Even the institute's alumni expressed that the head of such a facility should be someone with impressive credentials.

 

Names like Jahnu Barua and Santosh Sivan had earlier spoken out about their dissent over Chauhan's appointment.
