    History was created on August 1, 2025, as Shah Rukh Khan finally won his first ever National Award, for Jawan. While there were celebrations among his fans and a big section of the netizens, some felt that Ranbir Kapoor deserved to win for his performance in the blockbuster, Animal (2023).

    SHOCKING Throwback amid Animal snub: Ranbir Kapoor wasn’t in the National Award race for Rockstar as the makers DID NOT submit the film

    Ranbir Kapoor is a rare superstar who has floored one and all with his acting abilities, right from his first film, Saawariya (2007). Rockstar (2011) is a landmark performance in his career and it was a performance that many felt should have been honored with a National Award. The reason, however, why the film didn’t win in this prestigious award ceremony will shock you.

    In an exclusive interview with Bollywood Hungama in May 2013, Imtiaz Ali had revealed, “Ranbir Kapoor didn’t get the National Award for Rockstar because we didn’t apply for it. Aisi bewakoofi ki thi humne. That’s why even the music didn’t fetch an award. The producer was supposed to (apply), but we were doing something else (at that point).” This is also the reason why Rockstar didn’t win in other deserving categories like Best Film, Best Director, Best Lyrics and also the technical awards.

    Coming back to Animal, it featured Ranbir as Ranvijay Singh, a man who goes to insane lengths when an attempt is made to murder his father. There’s an equal amount of love and hate for the film due to its themes and certain sequences. But when it comes to Ranbir’s performance, even the biggest critics of the film have agreed that the actor has outdone himself in the film. As a result, fans of the actor and of the film have been upset that he was snubbed by the National Awards jury.

    Taking Shah Rukh Khan’s journey as an example, it’s safe to say that a National Award is inevitable for Ranbir Kapoor. It may happen for a fully-deserved performance, or maybe the National Award-winning act might not match up to that of Animal, as it also happened with SRK; fans believe Swades and Chak De India were far more award-worthy. But ultimately, what will truly matter is that Ranbir earns his place as a National Award-winning superstar. Given the trajectory of his career and the depth he brings to his roles, it’s only a matter of time before that honour comes his way.
