Bafta Victory was surprising: Jennifer Lawrence

Press Trust of India Los Angeles
Oscar-winning actress Jennifer Lawrence was left astonished after wining the BAFTA this year as she thought that someone was playing a prank on her when she was informed about the victory.

The 23-year-old actress, who scored a BAFTA trophy for Best Supporting Actress for David O Russell's 'American Hustle', was unable to attend the ceremony due to filming commitments for 'X-Men: Days Of Future Past', reported Deadline.

"Oh, it was a big surprise. I didn't remember that the Baftas were happening that day. I certainly did not think I was going to win one so I put it out of my mind," Lawrence said.
 

"So there I was, in the middle of being painted blue (for an 'X-Men' character), and someone said, 'You just won the Bafta!' And I said, oh stop'. And then it turned out they were serious," she added.
