Actress Yumna Zaidi, who made her transition from television to film, has garnered multiple accolades for her debut film 'Nayab - Naam Yaad Rakhna'. The film has earned international recognition, with the actress receiving praise for her outstanding performance.
At the South Asian International Film Festival in Florida, 'Nayab - Naam Yaad Rakhna' was selected for the Best Feature Film award. Yumna Zaidi herself won the Best Actress award for her role in the film.
This follows the success the film achieved at the Cannes Film Festival last year, where it won two prestigious awards.
Released on January 26 of the previous year, 'Nayab - Naam Yaad Rakhna' tells the story of a female cricketer, who faces numerous challenges due to her gender in the male-dominated world of cricket. The film portrays her relentless passion for the sport and the obstacles she must overcome.
Yumna Zaidi's performance continues to shine, bringing a new wave of attention to Pakistani cinema on the global stage.
