Jaaved Jafferi yet again bags a National Award




One of the most versatile performers in India today, Jaaved Jaaferi is known for donning various hats with flamboyance: actor, dancer, singer, choreographer, VJ, MC, ad filmmaker among others. The son of India’s most popular and legendary Actor/comedian, Jagdeep, Jaaved carries on the tradition of humor with élan.
As a producer, last year, Jaaved won the National Award for Best film on Social Issues: ‘Inshallah Football’. It is a feature documentary about an aspiring footballer who was denied the right to travel abroad on the pretext that father was a militant in the 1990s.
This year too he has won the National Award for Best Investigative film as a producer for his film ‘Inshallah Kashmir’.
‘Inshallah Kashmir’ is the story of contemporary Kashmir. A series of counterpointed testimonies, the heartbreaking coming-of-age of ordinary people; warped and brutalized by two decades of militancy and its terrible response. 
‘Inshallah Kashmir’ stars Chief Minister of Jammu and Kashmir Omar Abdullah as himself, Bashir Baba as himself and the chairperson National Commission for Minorities, Wajahat Habibullah as himself.
