Shabana Azmi Early Life

Azmi was born in Hyderabad, India, to a Shia family. Kaifi Azmi (an Indian poet) and Shaukat Azmi (a prominent Indian People’s Theatre Association stage actress), both Communist Party of India members, are her parents. Baba Azmi, her brother, is a cinematographer, and Tanvi Azmi, her sister-in-law, is also an actress. Ali Sardar Jafri was named Azmi when she was eleven years old. Munni was her mother’s nickname. Prof. Masood Siddiqui gave Baba Azmi the name Ahmer Azmi. Her parents were socially engaged, and their home was usually bustling with communist party members and events.

Shabana Azmi Career

In 1973, Shabana Azmi graduated from the FTII and joined Khwaja Ahmad Abbas’ Faasla, as well as Kanti Lal Rathod’s Parinay. Shyam Benegal’s directorial debut, Ankur, was her maiden release (1974). Ankur is a neo-realistic film that belongs to the art-house genre. It is based on a genuine tale that happened in Hyderabad. Azmi portrayed Lakshmi, a married rural servant who has an affair with a college student who comes to explore the countryside. Azmi was not the first option for the role, and other prominent actresses of the period declined. Azmi won the National Picture Award for Best Actress for her performances in the film, which went on to become a critical and commercial triumph.
