Bhubaneswar: ‘’The identity (parichay) of a person evolves with time; and commitment to his/her work leads one to success. However, one should not let arrogance overpower anything else. Remember your roots and the path to success,” said eminent journalist and Padma Bibhusan awardee Prabhu Chawla, at the third edition of Shrie Awards held here on Saturday.
“I wonder why Mr Shah Rukh Khan does films with young girls, to prove his supremacy, instead of doing films with talented artistes. In the yesteryears, the lead pair combination has invariably been on par with each other,” said Chawla. Reminiscing his conversation with Bollywood heart throb Shahrukh Khan for a television show, he labelled the actor
arrogant and insecure.
The eminent journalist was all praise for the unique and noble effort of Parichay Foundation to award men for their contribution to society.
