The Government of India has decided to honour ‘Baahubali’ director SS Rajamouli with the Padma Shri award. The filmmaker took to Twitter to say he doesn’t deserve the award, but is humbled to share the occasion with legends like Ramoji Rao and Rajnikanth.
“I dont know what to say. It is quite a mixed feeling. Very frankly i don’t feel I deserve the honour. This is not humility. I am quite aware of my achievements. But i haven’t created any artistic brilliance that deserves this honour.”
“Awarding Ramoji rao garu and Rajanikanth garu with Padma Vibhushan is so apt. Their work created a lasting impression that will reflect even on generations to come. It makes me even more humbled to share the occasion with such stalwarts.”
“But cant deny that it also makes me so happy and proud to be with them” Rajamouli tweeted.
The filmmaker has directed films like ‘Magadheera’, ‘Eega’, ‘Baahubali’ amongst others.
SRK has France’s Highest civilian award but India is yet to award him even padam vibhushan even after him being India’s identity for many.. SRK deserves Padma Bhushan because he got PadmaSri
long back and he has made INDIA proud worldwide..!
This is the simplicity of a man who feels he is not worth it to receive Padma Shri . My respect and admiration for this man is increasing day by day. He is a genius and has taken Telugu Cinema to a new level . After Baahubali his contribution cannot be underestimated . He took the risk of making such a movie and also without stars . He did not run after face value and that was a masterstroke . I hope with Baahubali : The Conclusion he can go one step ahead. Proud of you Rajamouli Sir and continue to dream big and do something which is out of the Box . We need more Visionaries and Directors like you . Take A Bow !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
yes sir you dont deserve padmshri but you deserve bharat ratna..
Congratulation sir. Indicine please post carrier analysis of ss rajamauli ‘

Yet to watch Baahubali but have read only praises and great reviews about the movie. So congrats to him on receiving this award.
Congrats Rajamouli sir.
Aamir has already got Padma Shri in 2004 and Padma Bhushan in 2010.
SRK still waiting for Padma Bhushan.
This shows who is a better actor and film maker in the industry.
Proud to be Aamir fan!
very humble man

@Komal Naha Chuka : SRK has been awarded Highest civilian by several countries while aamir is still waiting since he is born to wait, it shows who is better actor, filmmaker & global icon. also SRK has highest filmfare awards for best actor & has more international awards for best films , while your aamir is uncomparable to him as he has just two filmfare while has less international award than SRK for best films.. it shows who is better actor, person & film-maker.. Chote soch ke chote log.

Why is Rajnikanth getting Padma Vibhusan acting in mindless action films and potraying a god like character in every film is not enough to get the secong highest civilian award.
@komal naha chuka
Dont say stupid things.
Aamir has 2 padma awards, Srk has 1 padma award.
If a man has 2 diseases and other man has 1 disease, who is healthier? of course the second one.
Srk has only 1 padma so he is better than Aamir who has 2 padma.
@komal it doesnt show who is the better actor it only shows our dirty politics … Nothing else every one knows what srk has achived what he was and what he is now..
i was very much sure of anupam reciving one this year even bfor the list was out
