Akshay Kumar attended the 64th National Film Awards ceremony held in the capital city today. Akshay has been named the Best Actor for his performance in Rustom - a choice criticised by a cross-section of people. But he was happy and proud of being a part of the ceremony with his "most important people" - his wife Twinkle and son Aarav. 

"An important day in my life with the most important people in the world to me, my family. National Film Awards," Akshay tweeted along with his family photo, featuring his wife and son both dressed in traditional wear.

Akshay sported a black ensemble and matched a bright pink pocket square with his wife's sari pallu for the event at the capital's Vigyan Bhavan.  When Akshay took the stage to receive his first National Award, the audience cheered and stood up to applaud his achievement. Twinkle who was in the audience seemed emotional.

The six industries of the south -- Tamil, Telugu, Malayalam, Kannada, Tulu and Konkani -- bagged a total of 18 awards, while movies from Assam, Bengal, Maharashtra and Manipur also won in different categories.

The presentation saw a plethora of talent from different parts of the country, with the President describing the hall at Vigyan Bhavan as a "mini India" representing the unity and integrity which are unique to the country.

Mukherjee praised how the National Film Award winners are almost a "microcosm" of the diversity in the country, where several regions, religions, languages, cultures and customs thrive.

Twinkle was a proud wife today as she tweeted, "So now I can officially refer to him as my trophy husband :) #NationalFilmAwards."
