Honestly, while Gippy is a good entertainer, I'm surprised he won Best Director at such a prestigious award. The competition must have been tough. Maybe there were better Indian films this year? Still, congratulations to him and his team. Hope he uses this recognition to make even better films. 🎬

Great achievement! Gippy Grewal is proving that regional cinema in India is just as powerful as Bollywood. 'Akaal - The Unconquered' sounds like a landmark film for Punjabi cinema. More power to him! 🇮🇳

From singing to directing and now winning the Dada Saheb Phalke Award, Gippy has come a long way. But I hope he doesn't just become a "Punjabi star" but reaches pan-Indian audiences. Now waiting for 'Warning 3 & 4'! 👌
