Child actor Sunny Pawar, who was heaped with praises for his performance in the Oscar-nominated film Lion, has been chosen for the Rising Star Award in London. The trophy will be presented to him at the 7th Annual Asian Awards tomorrow.
Sunny, 8, who hails from a Santacruz slum, shot to global fame with his role in the Australian drama where he worked alongside award-winning actors Dev Patel and Nicole Kidman. He was cast as young Saroo Brierley in the real life-inspired drama.
Sunny's performance was praised by Hollywood celebrities Viola Davis, Andrew Garfield, Dwayne Johnson, and late night talk-show host, Jimmy Kimmel, who re-enacted a scene from The Lion King with the child star at the 89th Academy Awards.
