Suriya for 'Soorarai Pottru' and Ajay Devgn for the Hindi film 'Tanhaji: The Unsung Warrior' shared the Best Actor Award for 2020 last year.
The National Film Awards, founded in 1954, are one of the country's most distinguished and anticipated events. The Hon'ble President of India gives the prizes, which culminate in a public screening of award-winning films.
The number of prizes has risen over time. For the first six years, the Regional Best Award was given to the National Best Film itself, despite the fact that there were two President's Gold Medals, two certificates of honour, and silver medals for a dozen regional films. The number of prizes has grown over time.
Separate prizes for artists and technicians were created in 1968 for films released in 1967. Nargis Dutt and Uttam Kumar received the Best Actress (then named Urvashi) and Best Actor (then called Bharat) prizes, respectively.
The awards are divided into features, non-features, and best writing on film. While the selection of winners in the Features and Non-Features categories recognises excellence in cinematic achievements in various categories, the 'Best Writing on Cinema' section encourages the study and appreciation of cinema as an art form, as well as the dissemination of information and critical appreciation of the art form through the publication of various books, articles, reviews, newspaper coverage, and studies.
