Neena Gupta said- I could not believe the news when I heard it for the first time

Talking to Hindustan Times, Neena said- I got this news some time ago. I was happily surprised to know about this. Then I waited for a while and asked the manager to cross check this news again, so that I could be sure.

After that I became very happy and emotional with this news. I am very excited about it. I was also very happy to know about the other winners.

Neena Gupta dedicated this award to herself

Neena Gupta further said- I would like to dedicate this award to myself because I have worked really hard. This is the result of my hard work. It shows my journey and how far I have come. Results come someday and this award is proof of that.

The last time I received two National Film Awards was in the 90s for my documentary. Now after almost 30 years, I have received the award again, which is a big thing for me.
