Shabana Azmi gets NYC honour
NEW YORK — Bollowood actress Shabana Azmi has been honoured by the city of New York for her contribution to cinema and her involvement with the movie industry here, becoming the first Indian actor to receive the honour.
Azmi was presented with a ‘Proclamation by the City of New York’ on Friday honouring her “in recognition of her great contribution to the art of cinema and for her participation with the movie industry in New York City.”
Azmi, 61, was presented with the proclamation by Patricia Kaufman, Executive Director of Motion Picture and Television Development from the office of New York Governor Andrew Cuomo as well as with a ‘Certificate of Special Congressional Recognition’ by Congresswoman Carolyn Maloney.
The proclamation also applauded her work as a social activist, noting that apart from being a ‘highly respected’ advocate for social justice, she has worked tirelessly for other causes.
It added that her presence on the board of the arts organisation Indo-American Arts council (IAAC) has inspired hundreds of Indian film makers in the New York area for over a decade.
Describing Azmi as a “woman of extraordinary achievement hailing from a country rich in culture and traditions,”Kaufman extended Cuomo’s wishes to her. —
