Anupamaa fame Rupali Ganguly and her brother Vijay Ganguly receive the same award their father got in 1976
Actress Rupali Ganguly recently received an award for her popular show ‘Anupamaa’. Interestingly her father Anil Ganguly won the same award 46 years ago for the best story of the year for the movie ‘Tapasya’.
Sharing the joy with her fans and followers, Rupali wrote, “My father, Mr. Anil Ganguly, received this award 46 years ago for his movie Tapasya, for which he’d received a National award too. As his children, we are extremely proud to be able to have two trophies next to his. I’m grateful that Vijay and I have received enough recognition this year but this one is really special.”
“Moreso because we received it at the same platform considering we belong to television & Bollywood respectively, this award brought us together on the stage. It was a really emotional moment for the two of us. It is like life has come in a full circle now. This one is special because this is the only trophy we both have in common with our Pappa.”
Her brother Vijay also shared a post on his social media account where he wrote, “My father got the award in 1976 and 46 years later, we both get the same award. Feels nice.”
