The Infidel also picked up a Loaded LAFTA award for Funniest film and Omid was shortlisted for the Peter Sellers Award at the London Evening Standard British Film Awards.
“Right now, the Iranian Djalili is probably one of the most subversive, let alone funniest, comedians around.” Guardian
“To carve yourself out a career as the thinking person’s Iranian comedian in this political climate takes a fine brain and a masterful way with the audience. There is no question that Omid Djalili possesses both.” Sunday Times
