The year 2005 was known for some excellent releases and incredible performances. The contenders for the Nation Award were between Shah Rukh Khan for Swades and Saif Ali Khan for Hum Tum. Often, people say that SRK deserved the award for his performance in Ashutosh Gowariker’s movie. However, Saif won it for his performance in Hum Tum.
It will be two decades since Saif Ali Khan received the National Award. But often, netizens discuss that the actor received it only because his mother and veteran actor Sharmila Tagore was the chairperson of the CBFC. After all these years, Saif has finally reacted to the discussion that he received the award instead of Shah Rukh Khan because of his mother.
Saif Ali Khan On His National Award
The Adipurush star said in an interview, “My mother didn’t get it for me. Because if my mother could give me stuff, then she would have given me much more. I guess she wouldn’t have been my mother if she had done this kind of a thing.” Saif wasn’t keen to attend the ceremony when he got the award. However, his mother, Sharmila Tagore, convinced him to be there. Saif said his personal life was going through major ups and downs.
