The Multicultural Life Story of Art Malik With 5 Character Traits

Welcome. Let’s go into the 5 multicultural things we learnt about Art Malik! At Mr. Multicultural, we are promoting Equality and Diversity. It all started with the EMMA Awards show since 1997 that was broadcasted on National Television for many years. We have always believed, Equality is the greatest strength to any society. Mr. Multicultural Patreon web site:   / mrmulticultural   Mr. Multicultural Website: http://mrmulticultural.com NUMBER ONE: Hard Working Born Athar ul-Haque Malik in Bahawalpur, West Punjab, Pakistan, he was born to Zaibunisa and Mazhar ul-Haque Malik. His father was a physician who would not only qualify as an ophthalmic surgeon in the UK, but would also secure a surgeon role in Moorfields Eye Hospital later on. With this, they moved to the UK in 1956 when Art was 3 years old during the Queen Coronation with his four older brothers. At 10, he would be sent to private school in Quetta, Balochistan for a year and would later attend Bec Grammar School in Upper Tooting, London to continuing his studies. NUMBER TWO: Resilience Art Malik is dyslexic, which made academic studies difficult for him. While initially going down the route of Business Studies and a term studying acting at Questors Theatre. He would then go on to win a scholarship for the Guildhall School of Music and Drama. Through his hard work, he would work with the Old Vic and Royal Shakespeare Company where he played Othello in 1979. This was an amazing achievement taking on board the overt racism, within Britain at the time, against subjects of their commonwealth or its empire, who helped build then rebuild this country after the Second World War. Sadly, racism was part of everyday life, overtly not covertly. While many actors today and past have often followed the footsteps of their parents, who’re well connected within the industry, Art clearly had to strike an independent path in this industry, for an outsider within an industry that was known for being notoriously difficult to get into. NUMBER THREE: Confidence He would continue this momentum with the role Julius Court in Anglia Television’s mini-series adaptation of P.D James’ novel “The Black Tower”, working alongside Roy Marsden in 1985. He would continuously work throughout the 80s, with projects such as The Harem with Omar Sharif and Nancy Travis, and American projects such as the role of Dr. Ved Lahari on the ABC TV series Hothouse in 1988. NUMBER FOUR: Passion By the late 80s, Art had already been in American projects but in 2013, he would star in his first film produced in India, Bhaag Milkha Bhaag, a biographical sports film centring on the life of legendary track and field sprinter, Milkha Singh. Amongst India’s most seasoned actors and creatives, Art would play the father to Farhan Akhtar’s leading role. Art found much connection with this film, noting the film took on an South Asian perspective to the effects of colonialism, which marked a contrast to his earlier roles in the 80s which approached the subject with a Western perspective. His passion alongside his fellow creatives, would bring the film success where it was met with praise with various critics such as The Time of India’s Madhureeta Mukherjee stating “While you’re on-the-run, pause to watch this one.' He did not stop there with Indian cinema, reuniting with director Rakeysh Omprakash Mehra in the 2016 epic-romantic fantasy Mirzya. NUMBER FIVE: Humility His work has been known to inspire others. The British Television and Film Awards presented Art with the Sophiya Haque award in 2016 for his contributions to the UK screens for over 30 years. This is 12 years after we at EMMA had awarded him, for his work, who was ignored by many at the time to recognise his talents as a winner. In that time, he has spoken out about the lack of diversity which faces broadcasting in outlets such as Radio Times, The Guardian, and The Sydney Morning Herald. He has made personal commitments to helping those around him through his reputation on screen. This includes hosting two Ramadan dinners at the Manchester Vermillion to raise awareness for the Graham Layton Trust, a charity which provides free treatment for curable blindness and visual impairment in Pakistan in 2018.
