Pre-Oscars Celebration___________________________________________South Asian Excellence

We recently had the privilege to capture moments featuring prominent personalities like Priyanka Chopra Jonas and Oscar-winning Riz Ahmed at a remarkable event hosted by the United Talent Agency. This special Wednesday night gathering was a celebration of South Asian excellence, with the likes of Kumail Nanjiani, Anjula Acharia, Maneesh K. Goyal, Shruti Ganguly, and Netflix’s Bela Bajaria as gracious hosts.

The event paid tribute to the achievements of South Asian-led nominees acknowledged at this year’s Academy Awards. Our lenses captured glimpses of the vibrant South Asian Hollywood community, individuals who are reshaping and revolutionizing the entertainment landscape with their unique artistic contributions. Among the attendees were trailblazers such as Aziz Ansari, Lilly Singh, Kal Penn, Riz Ahmed (known for ‘Flee’ and ‘The Long Goodbye’), Oscar winner Joseph Patel (‘Summer of Soul’), Suroosh Alvi (‘Flee’), Pawo Choyning Dorji (‘Lunana: A Yak in the Classroom’), Aneil Karia (‘The Long Goodbye’), Elizabeth Mirzaei & Gulistan Mirzaei (‘Three Songs for Benazir’), Rintu Thomas, Sushmit Ghosh & Anurima Bhargava (‘Writing with Fire’), and many more luminaries.

This extraordinary gathering was made possible by the generous sponsorship of UTA, The Academy of Motion Pictures Arts & Sciences, Johnnie Walker, The South Asian Arts Resiliency Fund of The India Center, and The Juggernaut.
