This was perhaps the first sign of how versatile Shreyas Talpade would be in later years. From school plays to street plays to monologues and mimes – Shreyas wanted to learn and be a part of everything. “From 1990 till 2005 I did close to 2500 shows of different productions on the professional stage.
