Really I’m feeling very happy,” Tiwari added “It was my third attempt. Earlier, I tried in 2009 and 2010. In 2011, I got selection for MPSD, first batch. After completing one diploma course in acting from MPSD, I’ve been working in direction and have directed some plays for our theatre group.” says Abhijeet Solanki, alumni of MPSD first batch. “Competition was tough.
