Entertainment
Actor Paresh Rawal is backing the move to host the 72nd National Film Awards in Gujarat instead of Delhi.
Responding to criticism, he joked, "Gujarat kya Bangladesh mein hai, Pakistan mein hai? Gujarattoh hamare desh ka hi hissa hai. Gujarat mein zaroor hona chahiye," and added that big national events shouldn't be limited to just one city: they should happen all over India.

President Droupadi Murmu will hand out awards this year.
Article 370 won Best Feature Film, Yami Gautam grabbed Best Actress, and Mammootty shares Best Actor honors with Kartik Aaryan.
