Actor Shekhar Suman was popular for his talk show -Movers and Shekars has mad startling revelations against award shows. The actor has said that awards are on for a sale. Yes, you read it right. When asked if he thought he would get an award for his film Bhoomi in 2017, he said if he wins it will be nice, else he would buy it.
Elaborating on the modus operandi, Shekar said, “I am telling you a real story. There is this big awards function. I won’t name it. And there is this guy who goes to everyone who is nominated and tells them that he will give them the award. He takes two lakhs from each of them. So if there are five nominations in a category, he collects Rs 10 lakh with a promise that if the award is not given, he will return the money. And he ends up returning 8 lakhs, as one of them is bound to get it. The person who has won thinks he has got the award because of the money given. This guy has made a lot of money till date, as there are so many categories at the awards event”.
“Everyone knows that the awards are fixed. I have not told you anything that is shocking or blasphemous,” he concluded.
