ACTOR VIK SAHAY HONORED TO ATTEND TORONTO INTERNATIONAL FILM FESTIVAL FOR 'AFGHAN LUKE' PREMIERE ON 10TH ANNIVERSARY OF 9/11

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
(Free-Press-Release.com) September 2, 2011 -- Toronto, September 2, 2011 -- Actor Vik Sahay’s role as conniving journalist ‘Imran Sahar’ in the drama Afghan Luke doesn’t reveal many similarities to the quirky ‘Lester Patel’ he portrays on the hit television series Chuck.

The drama set in the Afghan desert stars Sahay opposite Nick Stahl (Terminator 3) and Colin Cunningham (Falling Skies) and is directed by Mike Clattenburg, best known for the Canadian television mockumentary series Trailer Park Boys and premieres at the prestigious Toronto International Film Festival (TIFF) on September 11, 2011.

Afghan Luke centers on a war crime, discovered by journalist ‘Luke Benning’ (Nick Stahl) but kept secret from the public. When ‘Benning’ pursues the story to make sure soldiers are held accountable, ‘Sahar’ sees an opportunity to chase the story himself. Sahay found the angle on the story fascinating on the ever elusive front in Afghanistan. “In the film, these young, healthy Western journalists have descended on the conflict with their own agendas. Maybe very luxurious agendas and not altogether noble.”

Sahay feels that the acceptance into TIFF is a colossal sign of victory for the film. “It’s a huge signal that you're in the mix, that your work is being seen and valued. I feel really honored to be in the company of film artists who made it to the finish line in such style.” In 2010, Sahay came to TIFF to represented the drama Amal which received six Genie nominations. That film also was a great display of Sahay’s dramatic acting skills.

About the fact that the film premieres on the 10th anniversary of 9/11, Sahay responds “It’s eerie. I remember that day so distinctly. But with the tunnel vision of the character I was playing, I didn't feel the arc of the film as being fully connected to 9/11. Of course it is. 9/11 is the domino that sets all of this in motion. But the characters are all using the war as a kind of playground to work out their identity; they go through initiations together that they would have done somewhere else had this opportunity not come up. They're kind of a narcissistic bunch in that way. That may sound cynical, but I think that's the way things go. Catastrophic, singular events take place and then a lot of life gets lived around them by people who weren't immediately affected.”

Sahay found the experience of filming the drama as far away from network television as it can be. Not only was it dusty and remote, but it provided him with an artistic rejuvenation. Working with actor Nick Stahl was another highlight of the project. Sahay and Stahl got along right of the bat, “It was the beginning of a friendship that I really value. I had always watched and admired his work in a big way, so it was the thing I was most jazzed about when I got cast. And then doing the work, talking about the work, was fantastic. He's such a truthful, natural actor. I picked his brain a lot about the films he has been a part of. I really hope we get to work together again.”

Afghan Luke premieres at TIFF on September 11th followed by a Q&A with cast and director. The film re-screens with a Q&A on Monday, September 12, 2011.

About Vik Sahay

Sahay is a US-Canadian actor starring as morally challenged nerd ‘Lester Patel’ on the hit television series Chuck. He first popped on the screen in the television hit “You can’t do this on Television’ and has since starred in many series and films in the US and Canada, including the six time Genie nominated drama “Amal,” “Good Will Hunting,” “The Rocker,” “Roxy Hunter,” “This is Wonderland,” “Radio Active” and more. Sahay’s upcoming projects include the highly anticipated Universal feature “American Wedding” the fourth installment of the “Amerian Pie” comedy, starring opposite the complete original cast. “Chuck” returns for its fifth and final season October 21, 2011

About Afghan Luke:

Disheartened when his story about Canadian snipers possibly mutilating corpses in Afghanistan is buried, Luke (Nick Stahl) quits his job but is even more determined to return to Afghanistan to get the real story. With his offbeat buddy, Tom (Nicolas Wright), tagging along, Luke returns to Afghanistan and intends to gather enough evidence to get his old story into print. But he soon finds that the country is an even more dangerous place than when he left. To make matters worse, his old friend and fixer, Mateen (Stephen Lobo) has been hired away by Luke’s journalistic nemesis, Imran Sahar (Vik Sahay). Soon the trip for Luke and Tom in Afghanistan turns into a surreal and perilous adventure, a journey into an alternate reality, filtered through a haze of gun smoke.

Burbank International Film Festival to Honor Wounded Afghanistan War Veteran


FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Burbank, California, United States of America (Free-Press-Release.com) July 27, 2011 -- PRESS RELEASE – IMMEDIATE

Burbank International Film Festival to Honor Wounded Afghanistan War Veteran

BURBANK, CA. The Burbank International Film Festival in cooperation with Flappers Comedy Club of Burbank shall honor U.S. Army soldier PFC Timothy J. Adams during its comedy film event being held August 14th, 2011 from 9:00 p.m. at the Flappers Comedy Club at First Street and Magnolia Boulevard in Burbank, California. Timothy or T.J. as he prefers to be called was severely wounded last month by shrapnel from a rocket propelled grenade that exploded near his position. The shrapnel sliced though his carotid artery and was certain to result in his swift death but for the amazing efforts of a helicopter team and superb emergency treatment from military medical personnel. More background on T.J. Adams may be found in a recent EXAMINER article that not only tells his story but challenges TV producers and film makers to do a better job in telling the many stories of the severe tragedies being experienced by American military families. http://www.examiner.com/entertainment-industry-in-los-angeles/my-challenge-to-film-makers-and-tv-producers T.J. Adams is a local man who just a few years back played football at Burroughs High School in Burbank and who is currently recuperating from his wounds at home.
“We at the Burbank Film Festival are extremely happy to make this tribute not only to the courageous T.J, Adams but to all the men and women serving in our armed forces right now and in the past. Their sacrifices have for centuries helped to keep our nation great and all too often they go unnoticed. In one small way on just one day we will help change that. Said: Adrian Iniquez, CEO of the Burbank Film Festival.

The August 14th event is the 5th in a series of 6 comedy film events leading up to the actual film festival being held in Burbank, California September 15th to the 18th. On August 14th several comedy film makers will be screening their films all seeking recognition at the festival. On hand will be three celebrity judges. Larry Hankin a true comedy stage and acting star with more than 140 credits including appearances on “Seinfeld,” Married with Children,” and “L.A. Law’ plus scores of film appearances is on the panel. Also joining the panel is the stunning actress Lisa K. Wyatt known for her work in “The Suite Life on Deck” and in the hit film “Legally Blonde.” Rounding out the celebrity judge panel is the very lovely Sierna Irwin whose work includes the “Drew Carey Show” and “The brave and the Bold.”
