The Sex Lives of College Girls star Amrit Kaur will receive the Breakthrough Award at The Hollywood Reporter’s Women in Entertainment Canada gala in Toronto on May 29.
The second annual event will see Kaur receive the honor as a rising star in entertainment and media. Kaur is best known for playing Bela Malhotra on the Max comedy series from creators Mindy Kaling and Justin Noble.
She also starred in the coming-of-age dramedy The Queen of My Dreams from director Fawzia Mirza, playing a Pakistani Canadian girl struggling to bridge the chasm between herself and her mother. Named a rising star at the Toronto Film Festival in 2023, Kaur is a member of Gracemoon Arts Company, an ensemble of actors based in Italy, the U.S. and Canada and which opened an off-off Broadway theatre in New York City in July 2024.
THR’s WIE Canada gala will also see Tantoo Cardinal receive the Equity in Entertainment Award on May 29, while Jeanne Beker will receive the Impact Award. The upcoming second annual WIE Canada summit will again bring together the Canadian industry across TV, film and music to celebrate and recognize the achievements of women driving the industry forward.
The event’s return follows a successful first-ever WIE Canada summit on May 30, 2024 that was attended by iconic Canadian entertainers in the TV, film and music fields like Lilly Singh, Nia Vardalos, Devery Jacobs, Kim Cattrall, Catherine Reitman and Jully Black.
