Shama Sikander REVEALS actors have been buying awards for years: 'Shah Rukh Khan has publicly accepted…'

Shama Sikander's vibrant personality shines through her social media, reflecting her carefree spirit and positivity. The actress recently shed some light on the fact that some actors pay to buy awards at award functions, shedding light on the industry's practices.

In an interview with Bollywood Bubble, Shama highlighted that the practice of buying awards has been prevalent for many years. She pointed out how Shah Rukh Khan has publicly accepted buying several awards. According to her, it was very honest and daring of him to say that. She also noted that the nature of award functions has significantly changed, with these practices becoming more common.



The actress reflected on how receiving an award used to be a moment of great respect and admiration, with audiences eagerly awaiting the winner's speech. Nowadays, she feels that the significance has diminished, as awards have become more about taking a picture and leaving, with less genuine appreciation.



Shama also expressed her surprise at the increasing number of award functions, viewing them as profit-driven events. She remarked how these functions focus on getting celebrities to attend for branding purposes. Shama shared that she often questions why she's offered awards, especially when she hasn't worked recently, and feels that such recognitions, like being named a fashion icon, have little connection to her actual work.
