Three things are guaranteed in life:
Death, taxes and the mandem looking fly in kurta, suit & tie
Evolution can take time. In a world of illusions where fear and insecurity blinds and tries to stem real growth. Let joy and truth be your guide. What they try to hide will one day come in to the light. This time the revolution will be televised!
MZ to world! This is only the beginning 🌏💫💚🙏🏽🌳
Hamlet out now in UK Cinemas. (US April 10th)
I’m so grateful to have been a part of this film. To be in scene with someone I looked up to as a kid was a surreal moment. What @rizahmed has done for our community has to be commended.
A massive thank you to @_aneil_ and @laramanwaring_casting for the opportunity.
So often, especially with Shakespeare, we’re lead to believe it’s not for us. That you’ve got to sound a certain way and be of a certain class or culture to tell these stories and play these roles. When you’re from a minority background you have to create it in order for them to see and understand.
Be the change you wanna see in the world 🙏🏽💙🌏

MAGID / ZAFAR (مجد/ظفر)
This didn’t feel like a job, it felt like a necessity for the South Asian community. Bringing a story to life which needed to be told. I’m so grateful to have been entrusted with this character in this precious offering to world.
Much love as always to @luishindman and @sufiyaansalam for believing in me and allowing me to cook with their magical script and vision 👨🏽🍳🎞️
The fact it was shot on film meant we had a limited number of takes which made it all the more exciting but also means the depiction has a beautiful nostalgic and raw element to it
There will be two screenings of it at the BFI London Film Festival. One on the 8th October and one on the 10th. Hopefully see a few of you there.
Here’s some BTS from the shoot, featuring my only photo with @trogram I think that exists 😂 wouldn’t have been able to do this without bro 👊🏽
Much love to all involved 🙏🏽🧡
Testament is out now on @angelstudios_inc
This one means a lot to me for many reasons. A special and particular shout out to @paulsyrstad@_kennethomole and @faith_omole for believing in me and creating something truly divine!
First two eps online now and then one released each week. Enjoy the journey 🙏🏽🧡✨
