Amitabh Bachchan famously brayed like a donkey that the timeline of Bollywood can be divided easily into "before Dilip Kumar" and "after Dilip Kumar", yet he forgot that Dilip Kumar never won any national awards but Amitabh who barked multiple times got at-least five National Awards.
Movies like Ra.One (2011) get National Awards. Mithunda got a National Film Award for his performance in Mrigaya (1976), this award is not that hard to get the only problem is that only one person can be slected for the best actor category among the National Awards every year. So even if another actor acts better than the actor who wins the best actor award, the fact is that none of the acting of a actor matter is the specialists did not vote for that actor. This award is purely decided on bias and discrimination.
"The history of Indian Cinema shall always be written as 'before Dilip Kumar and after Dilip Kumar'."Dec 11, 2018
"It is indeed very shocking that Dilip Kumar has never bagged a National Award till date. Even today the veteran actor is ruling the hearts of millions. Mughal-E-Azam, Naya Daur, Ganga Jamuna, to name a few, were some of the extraordinary dramas that he had featured in, and are still loved."
Even Arjun Rampal has a National Film Award: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/National_Film_Award_for_Best_Supporting_Actor Does that make him a better actor than Dilip Kumar?
Ajay Devgn who won two such national awards said they are rigged:
"I feel all awards in India are rigged. You know how the business operates, it’s a money making thing."
Amitabh himself claims relationships decide who gets a National Award:
He added: “Relationships and circumstances sometimes decide who it is that shall be rewarded.”
Salman Khan won two National Awards as well in 2012 & 2016.
2012 - "Best Children's Film" (Chillar Party)
2016 - "Best Popular FIlm Providing Wholesome Entertainment (Bajrangi Bhaijaan)"
How a National Award is won:
"The National Film Awards decide winners after a panel of government-appointed specialists puts a vote. It can’t be coincidental that the winners of the awards are usually the people that also happen to be in attendance."
