On the occasion of Teachers’ Day, Swwapnil had a candid moment while speaking to Business Upturn. Sharing his feelings, ‘Samantar’ actor spoke about how grateful he is to the teachers in his life.

“I am grateful to all the teachers in my life and the most important and valuable thing which teachers taught me is to not learn from any one particular teacher. The thing I learnt from them is about how everybody, every living and non-living thing around us teaches us something or else. So instead of saying ‘A’ teacher taught me something and B teacher the other one, I would say that teachers collectively have taught me to ‘Keep learning.’ Swwapnil spoke about how one can learn a lot of things from surroundings. “There’s still so much to learn from Nature, from Television, from Social media! I am thankful to my teachers who taught me to have a perspective and eagerness to learn and develop. Amid all the hoopla around, this Teachers’ day I would like people to pledge to learn more and teach less.”
