Actor Adil Hussain has bagged the best actor award at the Indo- German Film Week in Berlin, for two of his recent performances - 'Pareeksha' and 'Nirvana Inn'. Prakash Jha directed 'Pareeksha' while Vijay Jayapal had helmed 'Nirvana Inn.' Adil was seen as Buchchi - a rickshaw-puller making all efforts to ensure best education for his child in Prakash Jha’s film. 'Nirvana Inn' is yet to be released. Adil wrote in two separate tweets, “Thrilled to have received the Best Actor Award for the role of Buchchi Paswan in Pareeksha @Pareeksha2020 at the #IndoGermanFilmWeek in Berlin last night. Thank You for this recognition. I share this Award with dearest @prakashjha27 . And of course with the entire team.”
Manoj Bajpayee was among the first ones to congratulate Adil. Talking about the artists in his film 'Pareeksha', Prakash Jha had said in an interview, “In terms of creativity, Adil brings a lot to the table. I do not work with a hard set rule. We held workshops so that we build upon what we have. Each artist on sets brings his own creative inputs - Adil, Priyanka, Shubham and everyone else. The final output is something with everyone’s insight. Adil is a sensitive actor and I enjoyed working with all of them.” Adil, who has worked in several critically acclaimed films, received National Film Awards (Special Jury) at the 2017 for 'Hotel Salvation' and 'Maj Rati Keteki.'
