Nushrratt Bharuccha just bagged Best Actress at the NEXA Indian Streaming Academy Awards for Chhorii 2, and her speech was basically a love letter to every woman fighting for herself. She dedicated the trophy to all the chhoriis carving their paths, saying that when you pour your heart into a role and critics validate it, the push is unreal.
In the film, she reprises Sakshi, a mother battling a deadly cult and a menacing daasi played by Soha Ali Khan, who's hell-bent on abducting her seven-year-old for a dark ritual. Vishal Furia directed the sequel to the 2021 original, with Gashmeer Mahajani and Saurabh Goyal rounding out the cast. The horror thriller dropped on Amazon Prime Video last year.
The broader ISAA ceremony was stacked. Manoj Bajpayee took Best Actor for The Family Man Season 3, Shabana Azmi won for Dabba Cartel, and the critics' picks went to Shefali Shah for Delhi Crime Season 3 and Jaideep Ahlawat for Paatal Lok Season 2. Boman Irani, Sanya Malhotra, and Rasika Dugal were also honored at the third edition.
