The announcement of the National Awards has led to a lot of split opinions. While many are happy with the decision to give the Best Actor to Allu Arjun, some are not at all happy as they claim that there are better performances that deserve the award. Also, Natural Star Nani himself posted a heartbroken emoji while referring to ‘Jai Bhim’ not getting a single award.
Rana Daggubati who turned up at the SIIMA event has been asked about his reaction to all the happenings. Talking about it, he said, “Each one is entitled to their opinion. You might like a film and I might like something else. It’s the same with artists. It’s not about the person. Many thought that story [Jai Bhim] would bag awards. But, it didn’t. It’s not about why the other person won it. It’s never a controversy. They might have just shared a tweet, but there are people who make it a controversy. Amongst us, nothing is a controversy. Everybody can’t get the merit.”
Referring to Nani’s post, Rana said, “What did Nani do? Why is it controversial? It’s all your assumptions. Completely. I can like many things, you can like many things. Everybody can’t get the merit. It’s all about opinions. Everyone in this room has an opinion. So in English there is a saying but I can’t say it here now. I’m sure everyone is aware.”
Rana is currently working on ‘Hiranyakashapa’ and a few other interesting projects.
