Hamid actress Rasika Dugal is happy and proud that her film, set against the backdrop of terror in Kashmir, has won two National Film Awards. The film explores an unlikely bond between an eight-year-old boy and a CRPF trooper and has been named Best Urdu Film. Child actor Talha, who hails from Kashmir, has won the Best Child Artist award, which he shares with PV Rohith (Kannada), Sameep Singh (Punjabi) and Shrinivas Pokale (Marathi).
Rasika Dugal said in a statement, "Am very happy and proud that our film Hamid has got two National Awards. This film is very special and I am glad that it is being recognized and appreciated."
Hamid director Aijaz Khan said, "I am thrilled. Given the current scenario, I don't want to get into the political side of things, but I am thrilled that my film won an award. It is great and brilliant. I have been trying to reach Talha, the little boy who played Hamid but I just can't get through to him or his father's phone number,"
Hamid released on March 15, 2019, and streams on Netflix.
