This
honour follows Prashantt Guptha’s Best Supporting Actor Award for Rahat
Kazmi’s IDENTITY CARD, when he received the award at the hands of
Ayushmann Khurrana and the Honorable Consul General N. Parthasarthy at
The San Francisco Global Movie Festival. Before this, the actor also
received the Best Debutante Award at the 10th Excellence National Award
for his earlier film ISSAQ in which he was noted in the role of a
handsome villain.
While
Issaq was a commercial film where the handsome hunk’s histrionics spoke
with Prateek Babbar and Amyra Dastur, Identity Card highlighted the
importance of an identity card in Kashmir without which one can be
interrogated and arrested and labeled a terrorist. Prashantt Guptha
played a Kashmiri cop and stood up with stalwarts of the likes of
Saurabh Shukla, Vipin Sharma, Raghubir Yadav and Brijendra Kala.
Says
Somendra Harsh, founder – Rajasthan International Film Festival, “we
chose Prashantt Guptha for not just his acting skills but his overall
persona. This award goes to a person who excels as a human being as much
as he does as an actor. Over a small span of time, Prashantt Guptha has
managed to carve his own niche in Bollywood. This apart, he is a poet
and a singer and most importantly has his feet firmly on the ground. We
are looking forward to his growth in the years to come and are proud of
this young man who hails from our state.”
As the Pride of
Rajasthan Award adds another feather to Prashantt Guptha’s overcrowded
cap, here is looking forward to seeing more of this young man.
