Manasi Parekh feels 'magical' after winning Best Actress National Award for Kutch Express!

The highest accolade bestowed upon performers in India when their nation acknowledges their extraordinary performances and hard work is the National Film Award. Manasi Parekh's dream came true yesterday, October 9, 2024, when she took home the Best Actress National award. The actress talked about how she believes her hard work has paid off most handsomely in the prize. She remembered that she didn't have a godfather when she first started her career in show business, and she overcame a difficult path.
 
After appearing in Hindi TV series, Manasi Parekh rose to prominence and progressively made her way into Gujarati cinema. After much effort, she was finally recognized with a national award for Best Actress for the movie Kutch Express, in which she starred as the lead. She shared the victory with Nithya Menen and was spotted shedding tears when President Droupadi Murmu gave her the award.
 
After the win, in a media chat, she shared her views on the National Film Award win. She revealed, “This honor feels magical. Having received it during Navaratri, I feel it is a blessing. I have been a self-starter with no backing and no Godfather in the industry. Every step I have taken, every decision, and every project I have done, I have based my judgment, so it has been a very tough journey. Which is why this award feels even more sweet, as it’s like a pat on my back for all my efforts.”
 
Gujarati producer Kutch Express was a labor of love for Manasi Parekh and her crew. expressing her opinions about this special film's victory, she revealed, “Also, I have received it for Kutch Express and not a gigantic Bollywood Hindi project. It’s like my little toddler, whom the entire unit has nurtured with love, is getting the recognition. It’s really very reassuring, and with the award, I feel I have the job to do even more meaningful work so that the whole industry benefits from it.”
 
Three National Awards have been given to the movie, including Best Feature Film for Fostering Social, Environmental, and National Values. It tells the tale of a straightforward housewife who thinks she has the ideal marriage. But after learning that her spouse has been having an extramarital affair, she makes the decision to start anew in order to win her husband back. Darsheel Safary, Viraf Patel, Dharmendra Gohil, Ratna Pathak Shah, and Viral Shah directed the production.
