Mumbai, Jan 23 (NationPress) Actor Rohman Shawl is gearing up to embody a fascinating new role in his forthcoming film, Azaadi.
Following his impactful debut in the blockbuster Amaran, alongside Sai Pallavi and Sivakarthikeyan, which has emerged as one of 2024's major hits, Rohman received acclaim for his intense portrayal of the antagonist, showcasing his impressive action skills.
In Azaadi, Rohman will portray an Indian Army officer hailing from Jammu & Kashmir. In celebration of India's 76th Republic Day and to honor the sacrifices made by the Indian Army and Jammu & Kashmir Police, Azaadi draws inspiration from real-life events and tells a heartfelt story that brings to light the unrecognized tales of courage and resilience amid challenges.
Reflecting on his experiences, Rohman, who previously dated Sushmita Sen, expressed that the simultaneous release of Amaran and Azaadi has been transformative for him.
“In the span of two films, I explored the range of humanity, from protector to destroyer. It has been both a challenge and a victory, and as a Kashmiri, these roles resonate deeply with my heritage, as well as the broader struggles they represent. Looking back, I see 2024 as a pivotal year for growth. It is the year that truly shaped my identity as an actor. In Azaadi, I play Adnan, a principled police officer grappling with the ethical and emotional turmoil of conflict, while in Amaran, I take on the role of a terrorist, whose character is motivated by despair and darkness,” Shawl remarked.
Slated for release this Republic Day, Azaadi draws from true events and highlights the resilience, bravery, and sacrifices of officers operating in Kashmir. Produced by Kara Studios, the film features Mir Sarwar in a significant role, with Abhimanyu Tomar appearing as a guest star. The short film has already received accolades at both the Jammu Film Festival and the Jharkhand Film Festival, underlining its powerful and meaningful narrative.
On the personal side, the relationship between Rohman Shawl and Sushmita Sen has intrigued the public for years. Despite announcing their split in 2021, they continue to be spotted together.
