Paresh Rawal exposes National Awards. National Awards always landed in controversy and in the midst of all this, Paresh Rawal speaking to scribes, came up with a shocker.
He said “Award to mujhe to pata hi nahi hai. Ek baat main ye bhi bolun, National Award mein thoda bahut (lobbying) hota hoga. Utna nahi hai jitna baaki ke awards mein hota hai. Baaki ke award ki to baat karo ya na karo, koi farq nahi padta. National Award to National Award hai, reputed hai (I don’t even know much about awards. I’ll say that there might be a bit of lobbying in the National Awards, but not as much as in other awards. The rest don’t matter much. The National Award is reputed).”
He continued “Lobbying to Oscar Awards mein bhi hoti hai (Lobbying happens at Oscar awards too).” and added “Haan bhaiya, Raj ki picture hai. Chalo jitne academy ke jitne members hote hain sabko whip up kiya jaata hai (So, it’s Raj’s film. Let’s get all the Academy members together and influence them).”
