Jagat Rawat is an Indian film and television actor from a strong theatre background, including his six years in Bhartendu Academy of Dramatic Arts and National School of Drama repertory company, where he acted in many classic and contemporary plays. He is currently portraying Ashutosh Nanavati in Pushpa Impossible.
Jagat Rawat boasts over thirty-five years of experience in the acting profession, honing his skills through active involvement in various theater groups. He performed in numerous dramas and plays across professional shows in Mumbai and Delhi before catching the attention of filmmakers interested in casting him in their movies. Despite not yet landing a lead role, Jagat has embraced supporting characters, adhering to the age-old professional motto that “no part is too small for an actor.” [1]
His dedication to his craft has earned him opportunities, even for minor roles. In the movie ‘Commando’ (2013), Jagat portrays a Maharashtra M.P., infusing life into a character deeply engrossed in his profession and the power it entails, challenging stereotypes associated with a typical government employee. Jagat brings a unique touch to the role by improvising dialogues and adding mannerisms that are distinctly his own. The film narrates the story of an Indian soldier trapped in China, struggling to return home. [2]
While Jagat predominantly takes on supporting roles, he is selective about the projects he undertakes. Films like ‘Commando,’ ‘No One Killed Jessica,’ and ‘Chor Chor Super Chor’ deviate from conventional Bollywood norms, incorporating fresh ideas. ‘No One Killed Jessica’ is a biographical crime investigation story, and ‘Chor Chor Super Chor’ is a comedic tale centered around a petty robbery. His performance in ‘No One Killed Jessica’ garnered significant recognition, contributing to the film’s success and earning several awards, including the Filmfare Award for Best Supporting Actress (awarded to Rani Mukerji).
