Ajay previously stated in a statement, “I’m pleased to receive the Best Actor Award at the 68th National Awards alongside Suriya, who triumphed for Soorarai Pottru,” for Tanhaji: The Unsung Warrior.
He went on to say, “I extend my gratitude to everyone, but especially to my creative team, the viewers, and my followers. I thank the Almighty and my parents for their good wishes. Congrats to all the other winners! “.
Tanhaji: The Unsung Warrior’s triumph for best popular film prompted Ajay to retaliate, gaining him a national prize for producing the movie. “It brings me great satisfaction to win an award at the 68th National Film Awards for the finest movie that has offered family-friendly entertainment as the producer of Tanhaji: The Unsung Warrior. Tanhaji really was that. It is a heartwarming tale of friendship, fidelity, family values, and hardship. Strong patriotic feelings, amazing VFX, and an all-encompassing commitment to entertainment are there. I must split the honour with my co-stars, co-producers, T-Series, and filmmaker Om Raut. Most of all, I want to thank my creative team for making this a huge success and a National Award winner.”
Tanhaji: The Unsung Warrior, which was launched in 2020, became the highest-grossing movie of the year after earning over Rs 368 crore at the box office globally.
