Previously, when the nominations of Filmfare Awards were announced, a debate sparked on social media that despite having several hits in his kitty, why Akshay failed to get a single nomination. Movie buffs were sad and disheartened. However, Akshay later said that he didn’t deserve an award as there were more deserving actors than him.
But, now with Rustom, he finally has a prestigious award in his bag.
