SRK wins big with Jawan, his first National Award!
This award-winning performance of Shah Rukh Khan Jawan fetched him the prized Best Actor Award at the recently concluded 71st National Film Awards. This has been SRK’s first-ever National Award, making this occasion all the more historic for one of the most loved and talented actors in India, as this was much anticipated.
In addition to solidifying Shah Rukh Khan’s place as a cultural icon, his National Award victory also illustrates how Indian cinema is changing and how mainstream performers are now at last winning praise from critics. The victory is being celebrated by fans and other industry professionals as a long-overdue milestone in Bollywood history.
Right from 1992, Shah Rukh Khan has acted in various genres ranging from serious thrillers and romantic stories to sensitive social commentaries. He is, in himself, a testimony to his range as an artist. Over the years, he has emoted-for-a-lifetime performances in movies that have included Darr, Baazigar, Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge, Swades, and Chak De. Most of these performances were felt worthy of a National Award by the audience and critics alike.
In Jawan, he has performed with an incredible mixture of commercial elements and strong social messages. As a father-son duo standing for one cause to fight against institutional corruption, Khan’s performance was charming and highly emotionally engaging which resonated among audiences all over the country.
This possible victory for Jawan is akin to the fulfillment of a wonderful career and a well-deserved recognition of his art as a contribution. For years, there has been a long-standing argument between cinema lovers regarding his National Award omission for some of his career-high performances. Certainly, the box-office success bandwagon was achievement of all achievements, but ultimately it is the medal that is awarded to the best film at the National Awards.
His Jawan victory would not only be a personal triumph but also a symbolic event for the film world, partying with a superstar who has repeatedly redefined and reinvented himself for younger generations of film audiences.
