Earlier this year, the actress starred in the anthology Ajeeb Daastaans, got rave reviews for her performance. In the film, Nushrratt played a non-glamorous role of a house help, very unlike those she did previously.
Ajeeb Daastaans featured a whole host of talent including Konkona Sen Sharma, Aditi Rao Hydari Sana, Fatima Shaikh and Shefali Shah, amongst whom Nushrratt managed to hold her own and shine bright. Now her nomination at the Busan International Film Festival has re-emphasised her skills as an actor.
Sharing her joy at the news, Nushrratt says, “Ajeeb Daastaans is one of those films I did purely for myself, purely for the passion I have for films, stories and cinema. Being recognised on a global stage for it is just so overwhelming. I am ecstatic to be nominated by Busan International Film Festival 2021 for its 3rd Asia Contents Awards. So honoured to see my name alongside other talented actors from different countries. This nomination gives me more impetus to follow my calling with renewed fervour to do what I love every day.”
