Says, "We are proud and honoured that Paan Singh Tomar has been conferred with the National Award for Best Feature Film and Best Actor.

Tigmanshu Dhulia and Irrfan Khan are the two architects of this film and have literally put their blood, sweat and tears into bringing the poignant tale of Paan Singh Tomar to celluloid.

This is a huge honour for our entire team at Disney UTV, which has worked consistently over the years to bring audiences cinema that is entertaining and thought provoking, and I would like to thank the National Awards jury for recognizing these efforts"
