Noted Indian actor Anupam Kher has launched Britain's first Bollywood acting school amidst hopes that it will help the young generation of British Asians enter India's mammoth entertainment industry.

Currently there are two leading actors in Hindi film industry who grew up in Britain: Upen Patel and Katrina Kaif .



Speaking at the launch function here, Ash Verma, Chief Executive of Heathrow City Partnership said the school was a great opportunity for Ealing and the surrounding communities.

The school is a branch of Kher's ‘Actor Prepares’ School that he launched in Mumbai in 2005. The London branch, based in the Ealing Institute of Media, will enroll its first intake of 60 students in September. The fee for the course is 6000 pounds.

"Ealing has so many talented and creative people from different backgrounds, especially Asian as well as Indian youngsters. I really wanted to bring the best of Indian and UK education training together in this creative sector. Actor Prepares was the key," Verma said.

Kher signed the collaboration agreement for the school with Heathrow City Partnership, Ealing Hammersmith and West London College.
