Vicky Kaushal answers if he felt disappointed for not winning the National Award

Shoojir Sircar’s ‘Sardar Udham’ won in five different categories, including Best Hindi Film at the 69th National Film Awards this year. However, the director in a recent interview expressed that his lead actor Vicky Kaushal also should’ve won the Best Actor award for the film. In a recent interview with India Today, when Vicky was asked if he felt disappointed for not winning the award, he reportedly said ‘No! The thing is that many times, when you get a film, and get to work with a director that you like, you think that’s where your dream has come true, which is genuinely true for Sardar Udham. I am not just saying for the heck of it. Being a Punjabi, that topic, that man, that story is very, very close to my heart.’ Further adding how he had been listening to Udham Singh’s story since childhood, the ‘Uri’ actor said ‘So, for me, to eventually get the opportunity was a big deal and, after that, what I got or didn’t get, everything was a bonus. For me, the story to reach the world, to get appreciated, to get resonated, that is everything. After that, for the film to get all the rewards are all bonuses. I don’t have any qualms.’ Notably, ‘Sardar Udham’ won awards in categories including Best Hindi Film, Best Costume Designer, Best Production Design and Best Audiography: Re-Recording (Final Mixing). However, Allu Arjun grabbed the Best Actor Award for his performance in ‘Pushpa: The Rise’.
