I have met very few teachers who have inspired me…it was Taneja Saheb who opened my mind as an actor and taught me.

He is such a great legend of our industry. He had taught acting to my father. Before.. Sawaariya, I had done some classes with him. He was a great talent.

He is the best Guru India’s ever had, he is an institution and a legend and should be honoured and treasured forever and ever…

If you want to be trained as an Actor there is only one person who can do that and that is Taneja saheb...

The atmosphere he created for his students was so conducive that he made me realize the importance of reacting to the Actor in front of me…

I am what I am as an Actor because of Prof. Taneja and for that I shall be indebted to him forever...

Prof. Taneja was the first to identify my spontaneity as an actor and encouraged me to build on it...

Prof. Taneja is my one and only true Guru… He is the only person whose feet I touch in respect…I feel blessed to have trained under him.

The initial respect I got from the industry as an Actor was due to the stamp of being trained under Taneja saheb…

Taneja Saheb is the creator of actors and the biggest star according to me since he has always been a giver rather than a taker… I owe a lot to him and his teachings have been a source of inspiration and strength to me.

Taneja Saheb encouraged me to evolve my personality… and taught me the importance of being original…as an Actor

I feel privileged to have learnt under him… I have a special place for him in my heart right up there with my parents

He helped me discover myself as an Actor and transformed my personality.

Taneja saheb’s method is very indirect..he helps you draw out the actor within you by giving acting exercises and then analyses them for you.

His way of explaining things was so precise that if you really listened to him, there is no way you could misfire…

Prof. Taneja has not only devised a method which is his own, but he also understands the needs of individual students

My father has tremendous respect for him and so do I.

He taught me the importance of improvising as an Actor and giving each character my own interpretation.

He has a very gentle but an extremely effective way of teaching the craft of Acting and teaches every student as he would his own child

He taught me the importance of forgetting who you are or what background you come from… and to just think about the character and give it your own dimension.

He demystifies the process of acting and makes it very simple… he gave my life a sense of purpose and direction.

What helped me most was the interaction with fellow students and the importance of action and reaction and spontaneity.

I am thankful to Sir, for helping me find my path as an actor…

I wish he continues teaching many more aspiring actors…. As he has the magic touch

Even after 4 decades he continues to amaze and inspire me…

Taneja Saheb is a great teacher who has given the industry an amazing bouquet of actors

What a wonderful teacher Taneja Saheb has been…at first he seemed distant but later I discovered him to be a very affable and endearing person

He was always very precise in his interactions and never indulged in any loose talk…
