The Kashmir Files actor was joined by iconic singer Usha Uthup who was also bestowed with the same award. “I am so, so happy. I am overflowing with joy, tears are visible in my eyes, you all can see,” she told ANI while expressing her emotions.
The singer, who is popular for songs like One Two Cha Cha Cha and Darling further added, “For me, this is the biggest moment of my life to be recognized and appreciated by your country and, of course, by your government. What more could one ask for, truly? I feel so good because if you’re a classical singer or dancer, or if you are classical in your art, then it’s natural to eventually win an award. But we are ordinary people. So, to be chosen for the Padma award is a huge thing,” she elaborated.
