Sukumari questions Padma Shri award
Thiruvanathapuran, Feb 4 Veteran south Indian actress S.
Sukumari, who received the Padma Shri award in 2003, is
questioning the utility of the honour conferred on her.
"I don't understand why I was given the award and of what use it
is. By showing this award I can't get even a seat in a train.
But someone may give me a seat if I say I am actress Sukumari,"
she told media.
Sukumari has acted in about 2,000 films in Malayalam, Tamil and
Telugu. She has the distinction of having acted with leading
stars as well as their sons - Sivaji Ganesan and Pravhu, Prem
Nazir and Shah Nawaz, A. Nageshwara Rao and Nagarjuna as well as
Muthuraman and Karthik.
Her comments on the award came after Malayalam writer and
political commentator Sukumar Azhikode declined the honour.
