After her incredible win at the National Awards, where she was honoured as the Best Actress for her film, 'Gangubai Kathiawadi', the actor has added yet another feather to her glorious cap. She was the recipient of the Honorary Entertainment Makers Award at the Joy Awards held in Saudi Arabia. In a video from the event that has now gone viral, Bhatt is seen speaking at length about her love for cinema. “It’s a privilege to be here in this nation, the nation that is currently doing so much to unite us all and bring us all under one roof in the name of cinema. It doesn’t happen very often when countless talents from the West and East come together under one roof and celebrate each other. So thank you for making this happen," she said.

“It’s truly an extraordinary night. I’m obsessed with movies, it’s all I know. I’ve said this before, I think when I was born, I came out on ‘Lights, camera, action’. That’s how much cinema means to me. One of the things, if we are talking about joy, one of the greatest things in our lives is love. So tonight when I go back home, I take back with me the love of the movies and the love that I felt here in Riyadh. So thank you so much, and here’s to the magic of movies,” she added.
