One of the most acclaimed 'Taare Zameen Par', which sensitized millions, had Aamir Khan in the role of a teacher who identifies an eight year old boy as dyslexic and helps him to emerge out of the challenging defect. The similar role of an understanding teacher will be played by the yesteryear beauty Nadiya in an upcoming movie titled as 'Pattalam'.
Nadiya features as school correspondent cum psychiatrist in this movie which is produced by director Lingusamy's production house 'Thirupati Brothers'.
Rohan Krishna, a film institute student makes his directorial debut through this film. He was a former assistant to Rajiv Menon and Santosh Sivan and also has won a national award for a short film titled 'Paramapadham'.
The film revolves around the school students, played by new comers and has strong, emotional values, which impressed Nadiya very much and made her act in the movie as she is very selective about her projects these days.
