For Sanya Malhotra, this accomplishment is both overwhelming and validating. While Kathal received the award for Best Hindi Feature Film, Shah Rukh Khan was named Best Actor for Jawan, and Sam Bahadur garnered multiple honours, including Best Feature Film Promoting National, Social, and Environmental Values, Best Makeup, and Best Costume Design.<\/p>\n<p id=\"1\" class=\"story_para_1\">Speaking with Hindustan Times, Sanya Malhotra expressed her delight at learning all three films were honoured. She reflected on the importance of trusting her instincts as an actor, noting that one cannot always predict a project\u2019s reception and must rely on what excites and moves them. \u201cYou know when I found out that all three were being honoured with National Awards I had to take a moment. It\u2019s rare, and I don\u2019t take it for granted at all. It really makes me reflect on how important it is to trust your gut. As an actor, you don\u2019t always know how a project will be received, you just go by what moves you, what excites you. And this has just reaffirmed that instinct for me in the most beautiful way,&#8221; she said.<\/p>\n<p id=\"2\" class=\"story_para_2\">Leading Kathal holds a special place for Sanya Malhotra. She described the experience as surreal and felt proud of the team\u2019s work on a film that began as an unusual, quirky story and achieved significant recognition. \u201cHonestly it still hasn\u2019t sunk in fully. Kathal winning the National Award for Best Hindi Feature Film is just\u2026 surreal. To be the face of a film like this that started as such an unusual, quirky story and to see it reach this kind of recognition, it\u2019s overwhelming. I\u2019m so proud of the entire team, and I feel incredibly grateful to have been a part of this journey,&#8221; she shared.<\/p>\n<p id=\"3\" class=\"story_para_3\">Considering the significance of awards in her career, Malhotra acknowledged that while awards do not define an artist\u2019s worth, they bring validation and joy, especially when they are a genuine appreciation of one\u2019s work. \u201cThe National Award is just\u2026 different. It holds a very special place. It feels like the country acknowledging your work and that\u2019s a big, big deal. It\u2019s emotional. It\u2019s humbling,&#8221; she expressed.<\/p>\n<p id=\"4\" class=\"story_para_4\">Sanya Malhotra will next be seen in Sunny Sanskari Ki Tulsi Kumari and Bandar, which will premiere at the Toronto International Film Festival (TIFF) 2025, along with another global action-comedy film set to start filming later this year.<\/p>\n<div class=\"jsx-4625396a04d15488 jsx-1380413695 artcta\">\n<p class=\"p1\">Check latest Bollywood news updates, events and award shows, upcoming <a href=\"https:\/\/www.news18.com\/movies\/bollywood\/\">hindi movies<\/a> releases, exclusive interviews, box office collections, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.news18.com\/movies\/movie-reviews\/\">reviews<\/a>, trailers, and more!
