Akshay Kumar's film 'Padman' has been declared the best film on social issues. Ayushman Khurana and Vicky Kaushal jointly won the 2018 Best Actor award for their outstanding performances in 'Andhadhun' and 'Uri: The Surgical Strike'.
Akshay Kumar takes such knowledge from son Arav, said this in his praise!
On this occasion, Akshay Kumar said, "I was in the middle of the Mission Mangal promotion when Tina asked me if it was true that 'Padman' has actually won the National Award for Best Film on Social Issues and all the tiredness of my promotion by listening to this news disappeared."
He also revealed that the last time he and Sonam Kapoor were on the set of 'Padman' was when the National Film Awards were announced. 'Padman', released in 2018, was a social drama film, directed by R Balki, and was produced by Twinkle Khanna. When it comes to the work front, Akshay's upcoming film 'Mission Mangal' is going to be released in cinemas on August 15.
Team Mission Mangal will now be seen in Nach Baliye 9 but without Akshay!
