New Delhi, March 31: Bollywood superstar Aamir Khan is known to be picky when it comes to accepting awards and the actor who famously shuns the glitzy Filmfare and IIFA ceremonies, said that he only accepts the meaningful ones.
When asked why he keeps away from award ceremonies, the actor said, “I do accept awards but the media does not report them. I have accepted the Dinanath Mangeshkar award and also the National award. These hold some meaning so I have gone for these,” Aamir told reporters here.
The actor, who has already been honoured with a Padma Shri in 2003, will accept the Padma Bhushan in the capital today.
“The Padma Bhushan is an honour which the country is giving me. I accept it with folded hands. It means a lot to me since it is my country honouring me.
