One of the well-known faces of Iranian cinema, actress Elnaz Shakerdoust, has annouced she would not never work in Iran as a mark of protest over the recent deadly crackdown on protests in the country. 

A leading Iranian actress has stated that she will never perform in the country again after a deadly crackdown on protests. Elnaz Shakerdoust said in a post on Instagram late Monday that she believed tens of thousands of people had been killed in the crackdown and that Iran's soil now "smelled of blood". Elnaz has acted in dozens of films over a two-decade career. Her statement coincided with the start of Iran's main annual film festival the Fajr Film Festival in Tehran which Shakerdoust said she would be boycotting. "I am in mourning for my dear ones; what festival, what celebration can there be? I will participate in no celebration, and I will never again play any role on this soil that smells of blood," she posted. Shakerdoust said in the post that 40,000 people had been killed in the crackdown on anti-government protests. The US-based HRANA rights group has said it has verified 6,854 deaths mostly of protesters but it and other groups have warned the actual toll risks being far higher. The actress implied in her post that she had been told by Fajr festival organisers that she could be in line for one of its top Simorgh awards for one of her performances. But she said: "My soul has been unable to bear this horrific, criminal, historic tragedy." The Fajr Film Festival in the past attracted major international Iranian and international filmmakers but its scale has dwindled as Iran became even more isolated in recent years. Nevertheless, the 2026 edition will still going ahead this month despite the protests. Shakerdoust, 41, has been active for over two decades and starred in more than 50 films, winning numerous awards at national film festivals. In 2021, she denounced on Instagram the murder of a young man who was killed by family members in southwestern Iran because of his homosexuality. Her post sparked outrage among conservatives and was subsequently removed by order of the judiciary. Cinema in Iran, whose origins go well back into the imperial era but continued in the Islamic republic, is a contentious political battleground. Those arrested in the crackdown include screenwriter Mehdi Mahmoudian, co-writer on Jafar Panahi's film "It was Just an Accident", which was nominated as best international picture at this year's Oscars and won the Palme d'Or at the 2025 Cannes festival.

<p>Anoushka Shankar may have earned two nominations at the 68th annual Grammy Awards that took place on Sunday night in Los Angeles, but the musician chose to stay back in India for her projects and skip the ceremony. Shankar gave reasons as to why she decided to skip music’s biggest night and added that it was important for her mental health.&nbsp;</p><p>Anoushka penned a long note on Instagram and also shared whether winning a Grammy Award truly mattered.&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;</p><h2>Anoushka Shankar reveals why she skipped the Grammys this year</h2><p>Anoushka Shankar shared a series of photos from her recent shows on Instagram. One had her playing the sitar, performing on stage, and spending some fun moments with her team members. Along with the photos, Shankar wrote a long note that read, “It’s Grammy day today! I’m proud to be twice nominated - for my album Chapter III: We Return to Light and for Daybreak, the lead song from the album. These are my 12th and 13th nominations, which in itself is HUGE!"</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>The musician candidly admitted that being part of events like the Grammys stresses her out. "At the same time, it feels really good NOT to be in LA getting sucked into the whirlwind of interlocking excitement and stress that comes with major awards events. This year, I made a conscious decision not to go and to be on the road in India during the ceremony. I wanted to practice what I preach, which is that awards don’t matter like the actual connection playing music for people affords us as artists," she added.</p><h2>Anoushka talks about her mental health</h2><p>Talking about her mental health, Shankar said that the days leading up to the event have a lot of preparations, which take a toll on a person. "I wanted to take care of my mental health too- and I have to say, sometimes the process of spending literally thousands of dollars on the privilege of flying, attending, marketing and getting sucked in to the machine, hugely anxious about outfits and red carpets, starting to hope to win and then not winning (again and again!) can take a toll," she continued further.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Anoushka shares what a ‘bigger mainstream artist’ can do before the Grammys and added how a bigger artist's name lands in front of voters.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><strong>Also see: </strong><a href="https://www.wionews.com/photos/diamonds-drama-and-bare-breasts-grammys-2026-red-carpet-fashion-moments-1769999352234"><strong>Diamonds, drama and bare breasts: Grammys 2026 best red-carpet moments</strong></a></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>"There is always a bigger mainstream artist dropping into our global categories who has MORE money to spend on marketing; there is always an artist who chooses to spend months networking, attending nominee events and ensuring their music and name lands in front of voters. I don’t say this from bitterness, but just to acknowledge what the behind-the-scenes reality can be. If tonight, I happen to win for the first time, of course, it will be a joyful experience, but I truly, truly believe it doesn’t matter in a deeper context," Shankar added.</p>

<p>&nbsp;</p><h2>Anoushka on her India shows</h2><p>The sitar player opened up about being in India and how she is enjoying her stay here. "Being here in India, where Chapter III really began, working and laughing and playing with my incredible band and crew, is the stuff of reality, of my TRUEST artistic life. Wishing luck and love to everyone nominated tonight- especially those whose music I genuinely love and respect! - and to our audience in Mumbai - we can’t wait to see you!" concluded her note.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><strong>Also see: </strong><a href="https://www.wionews.com/entertainment/grammy-awards-2026-full-list-of-winners-1769996288475"><strong>Grammy Awards 2026: Full list of winners</strong></a></p><h2>Anoushka Shankar’s Grammy nominations</h2><p>Shankar received her first Grammy nomination in 2003 in the Best Global Music Album category for her third album, Live at Carnegie Hall. She was the youngest-ever nominee in the category. Since then, she has been nominated for different categories in the Grammys in 2006, 2013, 2015, 2016, 2017, 2021, 2023, and 2024.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>At the Grammys 2026, she received her 13th Grammy Award nomination for Daybreak in the Best Global Music Performance category and her 14th nomination for the album, Chapter III: We Return to Light in the Best Global Music Album category. While the musician has earned multiple Grammy nominations in her career, she hasn't won a Grammy Award so far.</p>

Anoushka Shankar has penned a long note on why she decided to skip attending Grammy Awards 2026. The musician earned her 13th and 14th nominations at the Grammys this year but decided to stay in India, where she is performing in different cities. 

Anoushka Shankar may have earned two nominations at the 68th annual Grammy Awards that took place on Sunday night in Los Angeles, but the musician chose to stay back in India for her projects and skip the ceremony. Shankar gave reasons as to why she decided to skip music’s biggest night and added that it was important for her mental health. Anoushka penned a long note on Instagram and also shared whether winning a Grammy Award truly mattered. Anoushka Shankar reveals why she skipped the Grammys this year Anoushka Shankar shared a series of photos from her recent shows on Instagram. One had her playing the sitar, performing on stage, and spending some fun moments with her team members. Along with the photos, Shankar wrote a long note that read, “It’s Grammy day today! I’m proud to be twice nominated - for my album Chapter III: We Return to Light and for Daybreak, the lead song from the album. These are my 12th and 13th nominations, which in itself is HUGE!" The musician candidly admitted that being part of events like the Grammys stresses her out. "At the same time, it feels really good NOT to be in LA getting sucked into the whirlwind of interlocking excitement and stress that comes with major awards events. This year, I made a conscious decision not to go and to be on the road in India during the ceremony. I wanted to practice what I preach, which is that awards don’t matter like the actual connection playing music for people affords us as artists," she added. Anoushka talks about her mental health Talking about her mental health, Shankar said that the days leading up to the event have a lot of preparations, which take a toll on a person. "I wanted to take care of my mental health too- and I have to say, sometimes the process of spending literally thousands of dollars on the privilege of flying, attending, marketing and getting sucked in to the machine, hugely anxious about outfits and red carpets, starting to hope to win and then not winning (again and again!) can take a toll," she continued further. Anoushka shares what a ‘bigger mainstream artist’ can do before the Grammys and added how a bigger artist's name lands in front of voters. Also see: Diamonds, drama and bare breasts: Grammys 2026 best red-carpet moments "There is always a bigger mainstream artist dropping into our global categories who has MORE money to spend on marketing; there is always an artist who chooses to spend months networking, attending nominee events and ensuring their music and name lands in front of voters. I don’t say this from bitterness, but just to acknowledge what the behind-the-scenes reality can be. If tonight, I happen to win for the first time, of course, it will be a joyful experience, but I truly, truly believe it doesn’t matter in a deeper context," Shankar added.
