“The Indian cinema industry is full of such extraordinary makers, technicians, and performers, and I wish we get to witness more and more such remarkable creations,” Sircar said.
Sircar has been a part of the industry for almost two decades and has been feted with around 13 National Awards.

On Tuesday, Kannada superstar Rishab Shetty was feted with the Best Actor in a Leading Role at the 70th edition of the National Film Awards for his work in the landslide hit 'Kantara'.
He said after the National Award ceremony in Delhi, “I feel extremely proud and glad to have received the National Award as it gives recognition to the Kannada film industry."
"It gives motivation to the upcoming generations of actors and filmmakers of the regional film industries of India, and they feel charged up to perform better in pursuit of national recognition”.
Rishab added that for him and his contemporaries, it allows us to push the envelope as getting a National Award is a huge responsibility as much as it is an honour.
“It gives us the responsibility to strive hard and chase excellence”.
Rishab Shetty is currently busy putting together the prequel to the film, “Kantara: Chapter 1”.
