Best Actor

[edit]

It's been published in some of the newspapers quoting Chairman of 64th National Film Award Priyadarshan that Best Actor Award is conferred on Akshay Kumar for two films Rustom and Airlift. However, the official press release issued by the Government does not mention Airlift, which is a primary source. Secondary sources cannot put forward anything that is not mentioned in the primary source. Please avoid including Airlift. - Vivvt (Talk) 05:51, 21 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

You are referring to an incomplete list. Press release only publishes the decisions formed by the jury. The jury chairman himself clarified Airlift could not be mentioned due to technical reasons. Jury chairman is a primary source, who has confirmed Akshay Kumar won for both Rustom and Airlift.--Let There Be Sunshine 14:14, 22 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
This longer interview with Priyadarshan explains the same thing: The award was for both Airlift and Rustom, but only one film could be listed for technical reasons. BlackcurrantTea (talk) 03:08, 23 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
