Bollywood actor Shahid Kapoor is elated that his last release Haider managed to win five honours at the 62nd National Film Awards.
Kapoor, 34, however, lost the best actor trophy to Kannada actor Sanchari Vijay.
“And Haider wins five at the national awards. So so so happy. Every one of them so well deserved. Proud. Big grin,” he posted on Twitter.
The Kashmir-set modern adaptation of Shakespeare’s Hamlet, starring Kapoor in the lead, won best music director and best dialogues honours for Vishal Bhardwaj.
Its other three wins were in the categories of best playback singer for Sukhwinder Singh (Bismil), best costume design and best choreography.
Kapoor is currently shooting his upcoming film Udta Punjab, which focuses on the drug problem in the state.
