Actor Dulquer Salmaan, whose newest movie Chup is presently in theatres, was as soon as stunned when somebody accused him of shopping for his first state award. Dulquer received his first Kerala State Film Awards in 2016 for his Malayalam journey drama, Charlie.
In a latest interview, the actor opened up about how an individual’s remark about him shopping for an award ‘crushed’ him. Dulquer recalled the time when he received the Kerala State Film Award in 2016 throughout an interview with Galatta Plus. He shared, “I remember a troll at that time saying, ‘Hey, want to sell your award? I will pay you 500 bucks more than what you paid for it.’ It crushed me at that time. I was like, ‘Really, you think I would do something like this? If I would have to buy it, I would have done it a long time back.”
But then Dulquer discovered himself at peace after somebody advised him “something amazing.” He continued, “The person told me, ‘You can have doubts about yourself. You can think you deserved it for something else. But the awards you get, especially the big ones, it may not be for the work in that film. It is for all the work that you have done so far and all the work you are going to do. So do not ever not enjoy it.’ I loved that thought, it gave me some peace.”
Over the years, Dulquer has carved a spot for himself within the south movie trade. But the actor has been listening to ‘nasty things’ about himself for the reason that very starting. In an earlier interview with India Today, the actor had mentioned, “I have often read a lot of nasty things about myself in reviews. People have even written that I should quit movies and I am not made for it.”
Dulquer was just lately seen within the romantic drama Sita Ramam, together with Mrunal Thakur. Directed by Hanu Raghavapudi, the movie emerged as a vital and industrial success.
