Actor Bobby Deol says getting an award does not matter to him as his father Dharmendra never received a best actor trophy despite being a legend.
Asked about the perception that stars get awarded only for serious films, Deol told reporters, "My dad is the biggest example. Most awesome, talented, amazing actor, a legend. (He) was never given the best actor award, ever.
"So it doesn't matter. For me, it's the love and appreciation of fans and people around that makes me the best actor."
Asked if he is nervous about the performance, the actor said, "I am the least nervous today sitting in front of you and answering questions because I've nothing to lose. I have lost many years not doing anything so I'm now out here, doing my best and entertaining as much as I can."
When asked about it, Deol said, "Salman is an angel in my life. He is the most awesome human being I've met from the industry, no one does so much for anyone and not that he is doing me a favour. He is doing it because he sees a fire in me and he wants me to be the best again."
