2025, marks 25 years in the film industry, and he cannot remember how many times he has practised a speech for this award. This has been a dream, and he is just so touched and humbled. Receiving it in front of his family makes it even more special. There’s a host of people he needed to thank, so please… Kartik (Aaryan), ther jao tum abhi, tum sambhal jao tab tak.

He hopes that by winning this award, they see that their sacrifices have been one of the main reasons he stood at the stage. He dedicated this award to two very special people.
