My father was an alcoholic, due to which he never paid any attention to us: Johnny Lever looks back on his school days
Actor Johnny Lever recently opened up about his school days and that period from his life when he left school in Class 7. He talked openly about his troubles with his alcoholic father as a child and recalled how much his teacher cared for him even after he stopped attending class.
Johnny Lever revealed about his early years. When asked about why he dropped out at class 7, he said in an episode of The Bombay Journey, “My father was an alcoholic, due to which he never paid any attention to us, but it was my elder uncle who paid us for our fees and ration. So after a while I got infuriated and left school. But I got a lot of love while I was in school, I used to imitate everyone."
“Even the teachers. My class teacher, Damyanti teacher, was very lovely. I am still in touch with her. When I left, she sent the students to call me and even wanted to pay the fees and clothes for me to join back the school,” he added.
