Abhay Deol unsupportive of awards ceremonies

As the buzz of the IIFAs is still looming, there are those who feel that too many such events can take away the integrity of the work that the industry is involved in. Abhay Deol has been forthcoming with his views.

Deol, as reported by IBN Live,��said “I think to celebrate cinema is great but sometimes when there are too many then you tend to lose credibility and I don’t think as an artist you can attend each and every award ceremony. I think as long as there is transparency and award function is pure in awarding an artist then it’s fine.”

Though not one to attend many award functions, Deol did decide to turn up at the IIFAs. “Sometimes a deserving person gets an award and sometimes a non-deserving person gets an award. Well, I could never attend awards and like I said there are some deserving people who get awards so here I am for IIFA,” he explained.

Deol made his debut as producer earlier this year with ‘One By Two’ (2014) which he starred in with his real-life girlfriend Preeti Desai.
