Mumbai, May 05: In his career of 23 years, ‘Dabangg’ got Salman Khan his first best actor award but the superstar is not bothered about trophies as it is the audience’s reaction that matters to him the most.
“I don’t want any awards. I have told all the producers not to put my name in the best actor nomination list. I don’t want to be a nominee. I get my recognition and appreciation when the theatres are full… when people whistle and clap,” Salman said.
The 45-year-old star received the best actor award for ‘Dabangg’ at the Chevrolet Apsara Awards 2011 and at the 17th Star Screen Awards.
“It’s the love from the masses that matters to me.
When the film goes from single theatres to multiplexes it is an award for me. I would rather believe in these rewards than such awards,” Salman said.
