Awards business has always been a sham in Hindi Cinema. In good old golden age of Cinema as well. Dilip Kumar never got an award for Ganga-Jamuna, Dharmendra never won for Chupke Chupke, Tabu has never won in popular category, RD Burman lost awards to powerful clique.
Good Actors know how compromised award business is. They don’t act for awards or for favorable news report because film journalism like all other forms of journalism is heavily compromised as well. These are not the reasons for anyone to lose hope.
Nor is there any lack of opportunity. Irrfan, Pankaj Tripathi, Manoj Bajpayee, Rajkumar Rao, Ayushman Khurana are all from very ordinary backgrounds. Your talent can make you an actor, powerful clique can make you a star. Many are happy being an actor. Those who want both suffer
Creative professions demand a lot from people. We can never imagine the demands creativity makes. Gurudutt ended his life at 40, Raj Kapoor burnt himself with cigarette butts and Dilip Kumar needed medical help after Devdas. Let creative people be.
Pandit Ravi Shankar led a tumultuous private life, Madan Mohan never saw any success, Madhubala collapsed- creative world is the world of heartbreaks. Keep it away from news channels and trending hashtags. It is hard to know the reality.
