If I did not get it, I don’t deserve it, says Shah Rukh Khan on not getting a National Award

Mumbai: Superstar Shah Rukh Khan, who has won numerous accolades in his career of over 25 year in Bollywood, shared his feelings of not winning a National Award yet, saying, “if I did not get it, I don’t deserve it”.

The actor further stated that he does not consider any of his performance so far that could or should have got the honour.

“It’s kind of audience, jury members and filmmakers that I have won so many awards. For me, to sit back and think about winning award for that (film), it would be demeaning any award. If I did not get it, I don’t deserve it,” Shah Rukh Khan told reporters here at the announcement of Indian Academy awards.

He was responding to a query on winning national award for “Chak De” or “Swades”.

“I don’t think there is any performance of mine till date that could or should have got national award. I don’t perform according to winning awards. If I don’t get an award I don’t deserve it,” he said.
