St Stephen's allows 'Life of Pi' actor to write exams
November 22, 2012  19:53
After much anxiety over his fate as he fell short of attendance, St Stephen's college today allowed "Life of Pi" actor Suraj Sharma to write his exams.

Nineteen-year-old Sharma, who apparently submitted written assignments to make up for his lost attendance, will be allowed to write his exams from tomorrow after he missed his first paper on Wednesday. "Yes, he will be writing his exams," St Stephens college's Bursar K M Mathew told PTI when asked if the teenage star of Ang Lee's much-talked about film had been provided his examination admit card.

An international tour to promote the film cost the first-year Philosophy student much of the academic action at his college St Stephens. And lack of attendance and apparent failure to produce his assignments instead of attendance meant he could lose a year.
