Darsheeel Safary - Best Actor Award Controversy
Friday, January 18, 2008
Darsheel Safary, the child actor from Aamir Khan's critically acclaimed and commercially successful film Taare Zameen Par, won the Screen Award for Best Child Actor.
But the award doesn't seem to have pleased the young actor. Darsheel says the Best Actor Award should be his and he won't settle for a child actor award.

After stealing so many hearts with an awe-inspiring performance in Taare Zameen Par, he believes he deserves to be recognized in the Best Actor category, especially considering the fact that Aamir Khan was nominated (and won) as 'Best Supporting Actor'. In a simple statement he says, "I am playing the lead role in the film, so I should get the Best Actor Award."
