Bollywood's been teaching us for ages.
And no, we don't just mean 'how to pacify an irate lover' or 'how to burst into a convenient item number in the middle of a forest.'

In fact, it's actually hard to think of an actor who's been around for a while and never played a teacher of some sort, be it for mere comic effect, fighting off amorous students, or another To Sir, With Love adaptation.
