Rajkummar also said, "Thank you jury for thinking of Patralekhaa because I think she is such a wonderful actor. She didn't get too many opportunities but whenever she got them, she has killed it - be it Phule, IC814, Citylights and many more. And now, of course, I have to go to the hospital where both my darlings are waiting for me."

Sharing the video, Patralekhaa wrote, "Thank you so much for honouring me with the Best Actor Female for #Phule. Thank you @ananthmahadevanofficial @pratikgandhiofficial and @dancingshivaproduction and thank you my best husband @rajkummar_rao for receiving this prestigious award on my behalf."
