Bollywood star Aamir Khan broke his record of not being part of any awards functions when he attended the Master Dinananth Mangeshkar Awards ceremony in Mumbai on Monday. He received a special award given to the city's eminent personalities in various fields from RSS chief Mohan Bhagwat.
Aamir was selected for the recognition for the success of his film Dangal, one of the biggest hits of 2016.
Speaking on the occasion, Bhagwat, who was the chief guest at the event, said the award winners are a source of inspiration and their good work in respective fields will help in nation building.
Aamir reportedly attended the Master Dinanath Mangeshkar Awards after singer Lata Mangeshkar invited him. "This is a huge honour for me, director Nitesh Tiwari and the entire team of Dangal. I am very thankful to Lata Mangeshkar and Deenanath Mangeshkar Trust and entire Mangeshkar family, " he said.
