Jodha Akbar rigged Bollywood awards says Akshay

While other actors make a mad scramble for awards, Akshay kumar gave everyone a lesson in humility by refusing an award at the Star Screen awards function on Wednesday.

The trade and organizer behind Bollywood awards such as Screen, Film fare, Zee, IIFAs etc have a long been suspected to be manipulating the awards based on political or other agendas, instead of rewarding objectively difficult to enact performance reflective of India.

This was highlighted this year when Aishwarya Rai who did not get expected best actress award for a 50-year character arc span performance in the box office super hit guru was seen given an allegedly 'best popular' award for a lesser role in Jodha Akbar, a controversial movie. which record will show despite being a huge budget and unprecedented open run failed break box office benchmarks and in fact was banned in many parts of India, and whose screening was allowed not by popular uprising but by its producer pleading the supreme court on legal grounds.

Actors such as Abhishek Bachchan, Amitabh Bachchan,Aamir Khan and Ajay Devgan have also at various points inferred the same at various occasions, with many outright skipping the award shoes altogether.

However this opinion of the bollywood awards was more directly confirmed by super star Akshay Kumar after this year's screen awards. Kumar has now reportedly put the story on award shows out in the open, saying "I get calls from lot of awards"they say please perform at our award night at half the price we will give you the award... it's a very simple deal. I don't want awards which are manipulated. There are so many awards nights today. Around 12 to 14 award nights. Awards Ki koi value hi nahi rahe
