Mohammad Bahrani (Persian: محمد بحرانی Persian pronunciation: [moˈhæmmæd bæhˈrɑːniː]; born September 11, 1981) is an Iranian voice actor, puppeteer, actor, director, presenter, and poet. Best known for his voice acting improvisations as one of the most popular adult puppets in the history of the Iranian television Jenab Khan.[1]

Early life and career

[edit]

Mohammad Bahrani (September 11, 1981, Kazerun, Iran) was born to an English teacher father and a housewife mother. He is the last of their four children; 3 sons and a daughter.[2]

Despite receiving a math and physics diploma, he completed his education with a Bachelor of Arts degree in 2005 from the college of art at the University of Tehran. He entered Tarbiat Modares University, where he completed his Master of Arts degree in 2008. He married one of his classmates and coworker Mahnaz Khatibi in 2006.[2]

He started his career with college theater and puppetry. In one of his performances in a festival, Maryam Sadat (a member of the jury) invited him to take part in Ninimoun[3] (Our Baby), a live television program directed by Bahram ShahMohammadlou.

Since entering the television programs in 2001, Bahrani has participated in numerous puppet projects for children and adults. The Iranian well-known puppet Jenab Khan introduced to television for the first time from a home video series called Morvarid alley. Rambod Javan, a co-star in Morvarid alley, invited Jenab Khan to his variety show Khandevaneh. Bahrani is also known for voice acting as two characters, Aghoye Hamsadeh (Mr. neighbor) and Baabaee, in an Iranian famous children's television program Kolah Ghermezi.

[4][2]

Characterization of Jenab Khan is a product of Bahrani's lived experience; from his childhood in Shiraz with Khouzestan war refugee children to his college dorm experiences. Most of the Jenab Khan dialogues are Bahrani's improvisations.[5] Bahrani is also well known for voice acting as two characters, Aghoye Hamsadeh (Mr. neighbor) and Baabaee, in an Iranian popular children TV series, Kolah Ghermezi, created by Hamid Jebeli and Iraj Tahmasb. He performed as a voice actor in many children TV series such as Ostad-e Hamechidoon (all-knowing Professor), Shahr-e Koudakan (city of children), and Ba ma Kash Bashi (Wish you would be with us).[4]

In addition to voice acting, he, along with Amir Soltan Ahmadi, wrote and performed the music video World Cup in 2014. They once again produced another music video for the 2018 world cup called We are coming to Russia. In this music video, they feature Jenab Khan as the guest-star singer.[6] As an actor, Bahrani appeared in several movies and TV series such as Sly, Tabagheye Haasas, Monster, Golshifteh, and Doping. One of the main parts of his versatile body of works consists of theatre acting and directing.[7]
