Stars in film, music and politics to he honoured<\/h3>\n
\"\"BOLLYWOOD\u00a0celebrities Shabana Azmi and Farah Khan are among the invited recipients of international awards to be announced at the University of Leicester next month.<\/strong>

\nThe Triangle Media Awards, which honours the top 50 South Asian & Foreign Achievers who have made an outstanding mark and contribution in the global mainstream media, will be hosted by the University of Leicester Law society on December 7.<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

Alongside the Bollywood celebrities, awards will be handed out to film maker Jagmohan Mundhra whose forthcoming film \u2018Provoked\u2019 starring Indian film star Aishwariya Rai will be released across the UK in February. <\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

Leicester Councillor Manjula Sood \u2013herself a former post graduate from the University of Leicester – will also be honoured for her outstanding contribution to local politics.

\nUniversity of Leicester Law graduate & critically acclaimed Theatre Actor Haresh Sood, is the Global Ambassador of the on-line awards and will present the awards at a ceremony which will also consist of a lecture and film clips by Jagmohan Mundhra himself who will discuss his forthcoming movie\u2019s legal significance to the University of Leicester\u2019s Law school professors and its students.

\nHaresh said: \u201cI am so pleased to say that this year\u2019s Award magazine, which can be bought online, is full of exceptional talent and highlights the cr\u00e8me de la cr\u00e8me of the top 50 global achievers and 4 honorary winners.

\n\u201cThe committee has been scouting for a venue for the awards for some time and Leicester has been chosen as it is \"\"one of the most harmonious and cosmopolitan cities around the world with a unique mixture of many races and nationalities. The Law School, where I studied, has an international reputation and given the context of the film \u2018Provoked\u2019, it is apt that the event is being held at the University of Leicester.\u201d

\nPriya Chhaya, Academic Officer from the University of Leicester Law Society, which is hosting the event, said: \u201cThe University of Leicester Law Society is delighted to hold this unique event. It has particular relevance for our students, as the film \u2018Provoked\u2019 is based on the highly influential House of Lords case; R<\/em> v Ahluwalia<\/em>. Provocation is a vital topic within 3rd year Criminal Law and also overlaps with other modules such as Criminology. We believe that the evening will be academically relevant, as well as enjoyable.\u201d \u00a0\u00a0

\nThe Triangle Media Group\u2019s online global awards were instigated by Australian Media tycoon and legal scholar Professor David Flint.<\/div>\n
