What Rajkumar wrote on National Award win Rajkumar wrote on X, "I’ve always dreamt of receiving the National award ever since I dreamt of becoming a film director. And it’s come true now! God has been truly kind.
But while Writing and Making #Amaran all I had in my mind was to make the audience empathise with the characters and the lives of Indian Army soldiers & families. The film has given back to me and our team in multi-folds. For this highest recognition of ‘National Award for Best Direction’, I thank the esteemed Jury of #72ndNationalAwards."
