- IndiaGlitz, [Monday,March 05 2007]
It came as a pleasant surprise when I was informed that I was chosen as a winner of the BEST ACTOR award for BAS EK PAL, informs Jimmy Sheirgill who has just won this award in the recently concluded Fourth National Media Festival and Cine India International Film Festival - THE BIG PICTURE-07.
Held at Amity University Campus, Noida, the festival also saw BAS EK PAL being nominated for the BEST FILM.
I didn't even know that there was any award for the BEST ACTOR in the festival. I was there with director Anand Kumar for the promotion of DELHII HEIGHTS and by the time I reached the venue I realized that I had been announced as the winner. Thankfully director Onir was there to reach the stage and collect the award on my behalf, smiles Jimmy.
With movies like BAS EK PAL and EKLAVYA getting him good recognition as an actor who can play variety of roles, is he planning to revisit his strategy of picking up roles? Well, there are number of exciting films up for release in coming months that would project me in different lights. The going has been good and from DELHII HEIGHTS onwards, you would see me playing different roles in each of the films, he concludes.
