Salman considers audience's love his National Award

In his over two decade-long career in films, Salman Khan is yet to get a National Film Award for his acting, but the superstar, who has received immense appreciation for his latest release "Bajrangi Bhaijaan", says the audience's love is a big award in itself.

Following a success party for "Bajrangi Bhaijaan" here, Salman was asked for his reaction to the fact that his fans have been demanding a National Film Award for him.

To this, Salman said: "It's really sweet of them. I really appreciate what they are saying and I have been hearing a lot about this but I think there are a lot of other people who deserve a National Award more than I do.

"But for me, people have loved the film, appreciated it and even watched it three, four of five times...I think's that's the National Award for me, which the public has already given me."
