Sharma has already missed the first test — Hindi — and will miss the entire exam if Delhi University doesn't issue him an admit card before Friday, when both his next exam and the India release of 'Life of Pi' are scheduled. While filming was completed before Sharma started college, he had missed classes while touring to promote the film.
Sharma's case, however, is different from that of fellow Stephanian, Unmukt Chand, captain of India's under-19 World Cup winning team who wasn't allowed to sit for his exams because he was short of attendance. Sharma was asked to submit written assignments for the classes he would be missing.
Principal Valson Thampu said Sharma had not submitted any assignment. "We made the effort to go the extra mile and evolve this scheme, which is internal to the college and not something DU approves of. But for me to grant attendance, I must see the written work in my file," Thampu said.
Suraj Sharma has been refused permission to take his semester exam for "not meeting the prescribed attendance requirement", which is 66.6%. His attendance record — according to Thampu, about 47% — is much healthier than that of Unmukt Chand.
Sharma had taken a year off from school to prepare for the film and still secured a 94% in the board exam and joined the college on merit. Apparently, he even made efforts to work out a touring schedule that would overlap, at least to some extent, with holidays.
If he is not allowed to write the exams, Sharma stands to lose an entire year as he'll have to take admission into the same semester he had failed to complete.
"He was part of an international production and that is not a small thing. But I consider myself dutybound to ensure that such a scheme is not belittled," Thampu said. "He met me today and I asked him for copies of the tutorials but he says he'd written them and lost all of them."
As for granting Sharma the attendance and admit card, he repeats what he had maintained during the Unmukt Chand controversy — that the "discretionary power" is not with him.
