National Awards Controversy...Hero's Remarks Add Fuel to the Fire

The National Film Awards have sparked a fresh debate in Tamil cinema, particularly after Raayan received a National Award. A section of fans questioned the decision, arguing that Maharaja, which received widespread critical acclaim, deserved the honour more than Raayan. The announcement has triggered mixed reactions across social media.

While many actors usually avoid commenting during such controversies, Dhanush chose to respond. Instead of remaining silent, the actor made remarks that further fueled the ongoing debate, drawing more attention to the controversy surrounding the National Awards.
