Critically acclaimed actress Divya Dutta has bagged a Dadasaheb Phalke Film Foundation Award for her role in 'Chalk n Duster'.

Divya tweeted a photograph of herself while holding on to the trophy.

She captioned it: "And the Dadasaheb Phalke Film Foundation Award for best actor in negative role for 'Chalk n Duster'! Happyyyyy."

"This is my first ever Dadasaheb Phalke Film Foundation award and that too for a negative role... It is just overwhelming," she added in a statement.
