My Take

Riddhi Sen genuinely excites me as a talent to watch. Born in Kolkata in 1998, he became the youngest actor in India to win the National Film Award for Best Actor, taking the 2018 prize for Nagarkirtan while barely out of his teens. That is a staggering achievement at any age. Working primarily in Bengali cinema, he clearly soaked up Kolkata's rich artistic culture, and his performance was later ranked among the decade's greatest. What I find most compelling is the runway ahead of him: an actor who reached the summit so young, with so much depth still left to add. I will be following his career closely.

Overview

Riddhi Sen is an Indian film actor who predominantly works in Bengali films along with a few Hindi films. He is the youngest actor in India to receive the National Film Award for Best Actor for his performance in the film Nagarkirtan. He is also known for his work in several other film productions. In 2019, Film Companion ranked Sen's performance in Nagarkirtan among 100 Greatest Performances of the decade.
