Mumbai: Mini Mathur is a proud wife as her filmmaker-husband Kabir Khan directed Bajrangi Bhaijaan has been named the Best Wholesome Family Entertainer at the 63rd National Film Awards. The popular anchor says it's a true appreciation for the film.

"I am very happy as I feel that a National Award is such a big deal, simply because it is one award which doesn't come in the form of TV shows. It's an event in itself," said Mini.

"I feel that it's a true appreciation for what the country feels for the film. I am very happy and proud that I was a part of it and Kabir is somebody who is to be credited (for its success)," Mini told IANS on the sidelines of the opening day of the Summer-Resort edition of Lakme Fashion Week on Wednesday.
