The prestigious National Film Awards ceremony commemorated at the Rashtrapati Bhawan on Thursday evening. The ceremony was attended by many well-known faces. There were several award winners who chose to skip the event because the President was giving awards to only 11 of the winners.
Notably, Bollywood legends including Sridevi, Vinod Khanna and A R Rahman were awarded the prestigious awards by President Ram Nath Kovind. Music ace A R Rahman bagged two awards - for Best Music Direction for the songs in the Tamil movie 'Kaatru Veliyidai' and the Background Score in the Hindi movie 'Mom'. Moreover, Veteran actress Sridevi was honoured posthumously for the Best Actress Award which was received by her entire family which included her husband Boney Kapoor along with her daughters Janhvi and Khushi on behalf of the late actress.
Also, Akshaye Khanna along with his stepmother Kavita accepted the Dadasaheb Phalke Award on behalf of his father, the late legendary actor Vinod Khanna for his contribution to cinema. In memory of the late actor, a short video was played which featured Amitabh Bachchan, Hema Malini and Gulzar.
