Though I was nominated for awards for films like 'Tezaab' and 'Apna Sapna Money Money' but I never won an award. Now I am not even nominated for any awards but still I attend the award functions as I love being there despite figuring prominently in a lot of leg pulling that goes around in the award ceremonies.
I don't like going out or attending award ceremonies.
I go to award ceremonies, but I always like to be in my world. That's the only place I can control where I won't get upset.
Apart from the National Film Awards, I don't see any other award ceremony that I should give value
to. My personal experience about these award ceremonies is that I don't trust them. I have no faith
in them so I would prefer to stay away.
You'll never see me at award ceremonies.
I handle screenings and award ceremonies really badly.
I go for a couple of parties; you won't find me at every film party and never at award ceremonies. I tried attending for the first three to four years, and I've performed at award shows. I sat in them, and I've also exited pretty fast from them. It's just not my place. I'd rather get their adulation in a cinema hall.
Bollywood is a great place. You can expect support for award ceremonies, weddings, and funerals.
I like to dress up and look nice. I'm not quite at the stage yet financially to do that too often, but it's nice to push the boat out a little bit for award ceremonies and stuff.
I think as much as people moan at things like award ceremonies, it gives people role models. It provides real positive reinforcement that you can be who you are and still massively achieve.
I don't do social events, I don't do award ceremonies, I don't do charity dinners. I live my life off-radar.
Award ceremonies are strange because you're sitting next to someone you've never met; you're celebrating with a total stranger.
The (Academy Award) ceremonies are a two-hour meat parade, a public display with contrived suspense for economic reasons.
In London I'm not seen in public. I don't go to award ceremonies or gatherings. I just don't go because I like my privacy. I like being with my family and I like being in their company. I work very hard and I don't have much time so I just want to be with my family or in the English countryside. I don't take holidays.
An award, to me, means a bonus. It's not that an actor works for an award. I don't work for an award. But, when you get an award, it is encouraging and inspiring and reminds you that you need to do well.
Taking off my shirt has become a part of my life, whether it is at award ceremonies or reality shows. As long as people enjoy it, why not?
