Exclusive! Inaamulhaq on Akshay Kumar winning National Award: ‘Rustom’ was one of his best

Talented actor Inaamulhaq has worked with Akshay Kumar in films like ‘Airlift’ and ‘Jolly LL.B 2’. As Akki won his first National Award today, we contacted Inaamulhaq to know what he has to say about the actor’s win.

Inaamulhaq said, “Akshay Kumar is a brilliant performer and of course ‘Rustom’ was one of his best. Have had a wonderful experience of working with him in ‘Airlift’ as well as in ‘Jolly LL.B 2’. Bollywood stars have started giving value to good scripts and so the recognition is given to deserving actors with such respect. It is a huge transform for Hindi Cinema and I wish the same in future for deserving and talented actors.”

While it has been announced that Akki has received the award for ‘Rustom’, it is said that the honour has been given to him for his performance in both the films, ‘Airlift’ and ‘Rustom’. (Also Read: Twinkle Khanna’s reply on Akshay Kumar’s big win at the National Awards is too cute)

Well, whichever film he has received the award for, we surely think that he deserved to win.

‘Eat Sleep Bollywood Repeat’ is his life Mantra. Dance is his first love and Rani Mukerji is his eternal crush. He is someone who loves being himself, and as for the ones who don’t agree, his reply? “Talk to my hand!”
