The 60th National Film Awards announced today saw Disney UTV's Paan Singh Tomar walk away with two prominent awards. Best Feature Film and Best Actor for Irrfan.

Paan Singh Tomar, directed by Tigmanshu Dhulia is the hitherto untold true story of a simple farmer, a loyal soldier and a champion athlete who became one of India’s most dreaded dacoits.

The film which saw a worldwide release on 2nd March 2012 was critically acclaimed across India and International markets. Siddharth Roy Kapur, Managing Director - Studios, Disney UTV. Says, "We are proud and honoured that Paan Singh Tomar has been conferred with the National Award for Best Feature Film and Best Actor.

Tigmanshu Dhulia and Irrfan Khan are the two architects of this film and have literally put their blood, sweat and tears into bringing the poignant tale of Paan Singh Tomar to celluloid.

This is a huge honour for our entire team at Disney UTV, which has worked consistently over the years to bring audiences cinema that is entertaining and thought provoking, and I would like to thank the National Awards jury for recognizing these efforts"
