Kajol, Tabu and Irrfan's reactions after getting awards

Kajol, who was conferred Padma Shri for her distinguished contribution in the India cinema, told media persons after receiving it that she's feeling happy and honored.

\"I feel honored and proud. This is recognition of hard work,\" said the actress, who had debuted with a flop film 'Bekhudi,' but became hit with masses after films such as 'Baazigar,' 'DDLJ,' 'Kuch Kuch Hota Hai,' etc.

Tabu, who's maintaining a low profile for some time and had carved a niche for herself with films such as 'Maqbool, 'Maachis,' and 'Chandni Bar' etc, revealed that even after receiving the award, she's still finding it hard to believe that she has actually won.

Irrfan, who won award for his power-packed performances in films like 'Maqbool' and 'Slumdog Millionaire,' could not be reached for a comment but a source revealed that actor seemed happy and content with the recognition
