Aamir At An Award Function After 16 yrs!
X
The choice of 64th National Awards which have been conferred recently lead to huge discussions in the social media. Even several celebrities strongly reacted on the choice. When the head of the jury, Priyadarshan was asked about why Aamir Khan didn't receive Best Actor award for his performance for 'Dangal', he answered that "Aamir doens't care awards. He doesn't attend award functions. Then why should he be considered for any award ?" Let us keep aside what he said was correct or not but.. Aamir has not been attending the awards for the last 16 years.

But he created sensation by attending Master Dinanath Mangeshkar Awards recently. Aamir Khan was honoured with Vishesh Puraskar for his brilliant performance in 'Dangal'. Another surprise is that RSS chief Mohan Bhagwat has presented the award to Aamir Khan.

Surprisingly, Aamir Khan last attended the Academy Awards event when his film Lagaan was nominated for the Best Foreign Film category. Then why he has attended Master Dinanath Mangeshkar Awards event now? Legendary singer Lata Mangeshkar has personally requested Aamir Khan as the event coincides with the 75th death anniversary of her father. Another interesting thing is that it has been 75 years Lataji started her singing career in films. That's the reason why Aamir obliged her request and attended the Award function.
