National awards have been appearing in the news due to some changes made to them.
00:13
As per changes, late Prime Minister Indira Gandhi and actress Nargis Dutt's names
00:20
have been removed from the awards. Indira Gandhi's name was attached to the best debut
00:25

00:32
But these names were dropped and changes have been made to cash prizes.
