Teacher's Day: Dolores Umbridge to Kalinidi from 'Lust Stories' - Tutors who're worst nightmare of students

English actress Imelda Staunton played one of the most hated teachers at Hogwarts, the wizarding school in the Harry Potter series. Whether it’s punishing Harry and making him write with a quill that scars his hand or using illegal truth potions to interrogate students and even moral policing fellow teachers and students alike, Professor Umbridge makes life difficult for everyone. Also, her obsession and love for all things pink will make you cringe, and feel relieved you’re not her student.

Hottie Cameron Diaz plays exactly what the movie title implies. The reason being, she’s quite rude, selfish, curses her students and hates her job. Poor children! In the movie, Halsey does all things un-teacherly from drugging and blackmailing a state official to swindling money from her student’s parents to get breast implants. She even cheats in an exam to make money. Though her performance is funny, imagine having her as a teacher in real life. A disaster!

JK Simmons did a fabulous job as Terence Fletcher, a ruthless, aggressive band conductor at a prestigious music academy. He’s probably the most foul-mouthed teacher one will ever come across in pop culture. Whiplash portrays the relationship between the abusive instructor and his ambitious jazz student. The movie received critical acclaim and box-office success in particular for Simmons’s performance. Watching this movie will surely make you feel lucky you didn’t have him as your teacher.

She definitely gave nightmares to little school kids, not just in the movie but also in real life. The power-greedy, fear-inducing, children-hating headmistress terrorised pupils by disciplining via potentially fatal punishments. Your heart goes out to the little munchkins. The film is about a child prodigy who uses her powers to deal with her irresponsible, selfish family and tackles the dreaded Miss Trunchbull.

In this anthology, the first story depicts a college professor’s (Radhika Apte) affair with one of her students. Apte does a fine job of playing the annoying professor wanting “life experiences” who initially plays it cool but later transforms into an obsessive crazy stalker giving a hard time to her student. Not that we condone teacher-student affairs but Kalindi is one professor you wouldn’t want to even dream of having an affair with.

Nawazuddin Siddiqui effortlessly plays a scoundrel school teacher, having an affair with his teenage female student here. He’s sleazy, selfish and a liar but yet the movie is subtly funny all throughout. Though he plays a scumbag teacher in the movie, the actor wins the audience's hearts by giving a good performance but at the back of our minds, we can’t help think of banishing creepy teachers like him from schools all over.
