Years later, when we started an awards show of our own, sponsored by a major TV brand, I realised how things work. A self-declared superstar who was the brand’s ambassador kept demanding the best actor award every year he had a film out. The constant conflict with the sponsors was so frustrating that we eventually stopped the awards after seven years, even though it was the second-most watched show on television. The brand turned to another film awards but soon got dropped from there as well. Currently the brand is out of business.

Oh you guys, this is not a blind. This is a social service to make small towner strugglers aware of what happens in BW. ☺️
