The Dadasaheb Phalke International Film Festival Awards were held at Mumbai's Taj Lands End hotel on February 20, 2024.

Rediff.com's Hitesh Harisinghani captures scenes from the event.

Shah Rukh Khan reunites with Rani Mukerji, his co-star of films like Kuch Kuch Hota Hai, Kabhi Alvida Naa Kehna, Paheli and Veer Zaara.

Khan won the Best Actor award for Jawan.

In his acceptance speech, he said, "Shukriya sari jury member ka jinhone mujhko Best Actor ke liye layak samjha aur bahut saal ho gaye mujhe Best Actor ka award nahin mila toh aisa lagne laga tha ki ab milega hi nahin. Mujhe bahut khushi hai. Mujhe awards bahut ache lagte hai. Main thoda laalchi hu, greedy hu. (I thank the jury members who considered me worthy of the Best Actor award. I have not received the Best Actor Award in a long time. It seemed as if I would not get it again. I am extremely happy. I like awards. I am a bit greedy)."

SRK also expressed gratitude to the entire team of Jawan: "I am genuinely thrilled and touched that people have recognised the work that I have put in. Work of an artist is not important... all the people around him or her make everything come together. So a lot of people's hard work is involved in making Jawan and helping me win this award.

"I promise I will keep working hard and entertain India and people who are living abroad, whether it takes me to dance, to fall, to fly, to romance, to be evil, to be a bad guy, to be a good guy...Inshallah, I will keep working hard."
