The failure of Suriya’s Jai Bhim to win any of the awards at the 69th National Film Awards has seems to have left actor Nani heartbroken and disappointed. The actor took to his Instagram and wrote, ‘”Jai Bhim with a red heartbroken” emoji. The National Awards did not recognize the widely appreciated courtroom drama in any of the nominated categories.
Not just Nani but several Tamil fans were also disappointed and surprised that Jai Bhim did not get any National Award despite being a strong contender. So when Nani displayed his disappointment indirectly, many came supporting him. However, a few Telugu film fanatics were not happy with Nani’s reaction, and they stated he should have been happy for Telugu films getting more awards at the national level.
Here’s what Nani posted about Suriya’s Jai Bhim on his Instagram Account.
TJ Gnanavel’s directorial was nominated in the best film category, but Manikandan’s Kadaisi Vivasayi won the award finally. Although Suriya was nominated for the Best Actor category, he failed to win the award. For the year 2020, he bagged the Best Actor Award for his performance in Soorarai Pottru. This year, Allu Arjun bagged Best Actor for his performance in Pushpa: The Rise, and he created a history by becoming the first Telugu actor to do so.
It has been reported that one of the reasons why Jai Bhim was unable to win the National Awards is because of last year’s appreciation for Soorarai Pottru. The film won five categories at the 68th National Awards including Best Film, Best Actor, Best Director, Best Actress, and Best Music Director.
The 69th National Film Awards were announced on Thursday evening. Despite strong films like Jai Bhim, Karnan, and Sarpatta Parambarai being nominated, Tamil cinema was unable to sweep the awards this year. Manikandan’s 2021 directorial Kadaisi Vivasayi won the Best Tamil Film award, while the actor late Nallandi was awarded the Special Mention for his performance in the film. Renowned singer Shreya Ghoshal won the best female singer award for Actor-director Parthiban’s Iravin Nizhal at the National Film Awards.
