She shared the big win with Kriti Sanon! But that’s not the only major event from the recent awards event. A South Indian star also created history at the 69th National Award!
Allu Arjun just became the very first Telugu star to win a National Award For Best Actor. He received the award for his much-acclaimed performance in Pushpa: The Rise.’ This is a big moment for the Telugu industry and Sukumar, who directed the hit film, hugged the actor right after the big announcement.
Arjun’s big win comes right in time as the second installment of the Pushpa franchise is all set to hit the theatres in a couple of months. The award is also an affirmation of the fact that pan-Indian cinema is here to stay and it’s time we brace ourselves for the rise of pan-Indian stars like Allu Arjun!
