Maybe his receiving the Nandi Best Actor Award for the year, 2009 for the movie, 'Mestri', haunts Darshakaratna Dasari Narayana Rao, as that award went on controversial and many complaints against him were reportedly heard for bagging that award.
Today, he went on controversial comments against Padma Awards and the award committee. He said, " I lost the respect on Padma Awards. Some of the people are getting these awards through recommendations.A special racket is being maintained to announce these awards.
After, listening to Dasari's comments, some of the observers are saying that he insulted the India's highest honours and if anybody goes to the courts, Dasari has to face hardships. Hope, he will not face such critical situations at this age.
