Paresh Rawal Takes A Dig At The National Film Awards and Oscars:

Bollywood actor Paresh Rawal has shared his candid views on the credibility of film awards, including the prestigious National Awards and even the Oscars. Known for his outspoken nature, the actor expressed that while National Awards are reputed and respected, they too might not be entirely free from lobbying.

In a recent interview with Shamani, Paresh said, “Award to mujhe to pata hi nahi hai. Ek baat main ye bhi bolun, National Award mein thoda bahut (lobbying) hota hoga. Utna nahi hai jitna baaki ke awards mein hota hai. Baaki ke award ki to baat karo ya na karo, koi farq nahi padta. National Award to National Award hai, reputed hai. Lobbying to Oscar Awards mein bhi hoti hai.”

His remarks suggest that the culture of lobbying and favoritism is not limited to Indian cinema but exists globally, even in platforms as big as the Academy Awards.

Paresh’s statement has sparked discussions among film enthusiasts and industry insiders about how much influence politics, connections, or promotional campaigns have over awards that are meant to honor true artistic merit. As we know, after every award ceremony, there is a lobby calling out the juries for their choices and now we have one of the members from the fraternity exposing hidden facts.

The veteran actor, who has given decades of memorable performances in both comic and serious roles, has always believed that genuine talent should be recognized based on merit rather than influence. Rawal will next be seen in Bhooth Bangla and Hera Pheri 3.
