Jawan Fame Ridhi Dogra On Shah Rukh Khan's National Award Win: ‘This Fake Mother…'
Ridhi Dogra, who played Kaveri Amma in Shah Rukh Khan's Jawan, is 'over the moon' as the Bollywood superstar won Best Actor in a Leading Role at the 71st National Film Awards. Bollywood superstar Shah Rukh Khan won his first-ever National Film Award on Friday, marking a major milestone in his 33-year acting career. He won Best Actor in a Leading Role for his outstanding performance in Atlee's Jawan. Actress Ridhi Dogra, who played SRK's godmother 'Kaveri Amma' in the film, has now reacted to his National Award win, expressing her joy and pride over his long-overdue recognition. She hilariously called herself the 'fake mother' of her Jawan son Shah Rukh, expressing her 'real joy' over the news. On Friday, Ridhi Dogra reacted to a post on X (formerly Twitter) by a Shah Rukh Khan fan page announcing his Best Actor win for Jawan at the 71st National Film Awards. Referencing her role in the Atlee film, Ridhi Dogra wrote, 'The best news. The best film. This fake mother of her Jawan son is over the moon with real joy @iamsrk congratulations bigeesssttt love to you and @Atlee_dir and entire team !!!" Check out her post below! The best news. The best film. This fake mother of her Jawan son is over the moon with real joy @iamsrk congratulations ♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️ bigeesssttt love to you and @Atlee_dir and entire team !!! — Ridhi Dogra (@iRidhiDogra) August 1, 2025 She also took to her Instagram stories, and wrote, 'The Best News. For the best film. Your film @atlee47 Our film. Like you said, the awards deserve you @iamsrk All Of them. Always." Shah Rukh Khan shared the Best Actor award with Vikrant Massey, who won for his role in 12th Fail. Soon after the National Film Awards were announced, Shah Rukh Khan shared a video thanking his fans, directors and family for their unwavering support. Meanwhile, last month, Ridhi Dogra opened up about playing Shah Rukh Khan's godmother Kaveri Amma in the film. She said that as a fan of SRK, it was 'painful' for her to play the role, and she said that it would be a nightmare for any Shah Rukh Khan fan. She explained that in the film, her role was not actually that of Shah Rukh's mother – that part was played by Deepika Padukone. However, since the makers didn't want to label Deepika's character as the mother, so she became 'Kaveri Amma'. In an interview with Indian Express, Ridhi Dogra said, 'SRK is eternally young. I am playing a mother to Shah Rukh Khan. That's ridiculous. That's the stuff nightmares are made of. That's a nightmare for every Shah Rukh fan. I was directly called to meet Atlee on the sets of Jawan. I was very happy, but I didn't know where I was going and what was happening. After reaching there, I realized that they were shooting Jawan, the whole set was ready. Atlee explained the role to me, and I was like, 'No, what makes you think I am this person?'" However, she felt it was an opportunity she shouldn't pass up, so she decided to take on the role. First Published: Disclaimer: Comments reflect users' views, not News18's.
