Naseeruddin Shah uses awards in that manner. Naseeruddin Shah is known for his exceptional acting skills and performances. He won many awards and accolades for his performances. Now Naseeruddin Shah speaking to Scirbes, made startling revelations that he is using awards as door handles in farmhouse.

He said “Any actor who has put their life and effort into portraying a role is a good actor. If you just pick one person from the lot and say that ‘this is the best actor of the year’, how’s it fair? I am not proud of those awards. I did not even go collect the last two awards I received. So, when I built a farmhouse I decided to put these awards there. Whoever goes to the washroom will get two awards each as the handles are made of the Filmfare awards.”

He went on to add  “I don’t find any value in these trophies. I was happy when I received the initial ones. But then, trophies started piling up around me. Sooner or later, I understood that these awards are a result of lobbying. One is receiving these awards not necessarily because of their merit. So I started leaving them behind. After that, when I received Padma Shri and Padma Bhushan, it reminded me of my deceased father who used to always be worried about my job and said things like ‘if you do this useless work, you will become a fool’. So, when I went to Rashtrapati Bhavan to collect the awards, I looked up and asked my dad if he was seeing all thisâ€æ He wasâ€æ and I am sure he was happyâ€æ I was happy to receive those awards. But I can’t stand these competitive awards.”
