Maya <\/span>Jai’s<\/span> extraordinary talent is getting all the recognition she deserves as she hopes to add new feathers to her well-decorated hat, following the 1<\/span>7<\/span>-year-old’s nomination for the\u202f2021 Young Artists Academy Awards\u202f<\/span>for <\/span><\/span>I’m Ready.<\/span><\/span><\/a> The feat is a further reiteration of the multifaceted entertainer’s huge talent. In a related development, Maya recently wrapped up a film titled “Old Sc<\/span>hool Rollers,” where she played<\/span> one of the lead roles as Breonna Harrison.<\/span><\/span> <\/span><\/p>\n

The <\/span>Young Artist Academy<\/span><\/span><\/a> has grown in leaps and bounds over the years, recognized as one of the most prestigious platforms in the en<\/span>tertainment industry, especially for young, vibrant creatives. The organization has evolved since it was founded in 1978, educating, protecting, and training young entertainers to safely navigate and elevate in Hollywood, while giving them an annual platform for high-class recognition. Consequently, getting a nomination is a major deal, which further underlines the significance of Maya’s achievement by bagging three nominations at the upcoming awards.<\/span><\/span> <\/span><\/p>\n

Maya Jai<\/span><\/span><\/a>\u202fhas been nominated in 3 categories – Outstanding Producer, Outstanding Writer, and Short Film Teen Actress for her film\u202f<\/span>I’m Ready<\/span>. The award-winning young entertainer worked with other amazing acts on the project to chronicle the experience of Lo, a 15-year-old smart and responsible teen who finds herself taking an interest in more than just her books. The movie was featured at the Harlem International Film Festival, winnin<\/span>g the 2021 Youth Award as well as the 2021 Winner of Student Short High School at the Garden State Film Festival and winning<\/span> LV Magazine’s 2020 best director award and also selected for 11 Film Festivals.<\/span><\/span> <\/span><\/p>\n

Maya Jai hopes to replicate similar achiev<\/span>ements with the soon-to-be-released feature film, “Old School Rollers,” where she brings her acting <\/span>prowess<\/span> to bear. The film will premiere at the end of August 2021 in Washington, DC.<\/span><\/span> <\/span><\/p>\n
