Born in the year 1938 in a middle class family Suresh Khare?s father was a school teacher. His mother was not just educated but also a voracious reader. The general attitude of his parents was progressive. His father was a fan of Bal Gandharva and loved Marathi musical plays. Perhaps that could have been the reason why SK was attracted towards the ?Theatre? since his childhood. Surprisingly, his first role in a play was a female role in ?Satteche Gulam? written by Mama Varerkar. SK was all of 10 then. In his school days his teacher Shri M.A. Joshi appreciated his talents and encouraged him. During his college days he started participating in inter-collegiate drama competitions. This is where he met Kamlakar Sarang and was introduced to Nanadkumar Raote, a talented director. This was a turning point in his life. After completing his education, BCom, BA and LLB, he took up a job with an Insurance Company but continued his hobby of acting. He joined the Amateur Theatre group ?Lalit Kala Sadhana?. He was happy with minor side roles in plays produced by this group but harboured the hope that some day or the other he would get a break and a big role. He wanted to be an 'Actor'. That was his dream. However, that was not to be. 1970 Maharashtra State Drama Competition Award , 1972 Maharashtra State Drama Competition Award ,1986 Acharaya Atre Foundation Puraskar of Natyaparishad 1995 Ganesh Solanki Smriti Puraskar of Natyadapan
