Major Mohommed Ali Shah
Speaker | Defence expert | Defence analyst
Who am I
Major Mohommed Ali Shah is a TEDx speaker, a Defence expert
and a Defence analyst on many popular Indian News Channels. He is a well-known
Theatre and film personality too, and a visiting faculty at Subhash Ghai's
" Whistling Woods International". He has also been the Jaipur City
Coordinator for the IPL matches since the last two seasons of IPL, including
the women's IPL that started this year.
He did his first play when he was 5 years old and was bitten by the bug of acting ever since! He has a huge body of work in Theatre including several productions with alumni of The National School of Drama.
He did his schooling from Lawrence School, Lovedale and graduated from the Fergusson college, Pune. While in Pune he acted in several short films with the students of The Film and Television Institute of India and has a certificate from there.
He joined the Short Service Commission in the Army to train as a " Commando" and was posted at the Indo - Pak border at the line of control as a young Lieutenant. He was awarded a commendation card for his exceptional and meritorious service to the nation for being unmindful of his own personal safety and going beyond the call of duty while serving with the ' Assam rifles" in the North East.
He is also an alumni of the prestigious IIM Calcutta and has done Theatre with Thespians such as Tom Alter and Naseer Uddin Shah (who incidentally is his father's younger brother). His father has served as the Deputy Chief of The Army Staff and also is the former Vice Chancellor of The Aligarh Muslim University and is currently the Pro Chancellor of the Prestigious USTM and has been a member of the board of Welhams boy’s school and IIM Lucknow.
Major Mohommed Ali Shah has acted in FTII alumnus Shriram Raghavan's "Agent Vinod", and in Vishal Bhardwaj's "Haider" which won 5 National awards apart from from several other prestigious film awards. He has recently completed shooting for National School of Drama alumnus and National award winning director Tigmanshu Dhulia's latest film "Yaara". Jahnu Baruah's " Broken window" produced by Priyanka Chopra. Incidentally and interestingly most of the film makers Shah has worked with are national film award winners!
Major Ali won the coveted award of “ Best actor” at the prestigious Delhi International Film Festival, “Best actor” at the International Film Festival of Prayag apart from a ‘Special mention by jury and critique’s” for outstanding performance, and “Best actor” at the Aligarh Film Saaz International Film Festival.
Despite having several interesting film projects, Theatre remains the first love of this "Major" actor.
