Mithun Chakraborty expressed his feelings about receiving this honour to India Today: "Abhi tak hosh sambhala nah (I am still in daze). Such a big award. Main khushi se hass bhi nahi sakta, khushi se ro bhi nahi sakta. (I am totally stunned and I am not out of it yet). Yeh safar bahut katheen tha. Many tell me why I don't make a biography. Main kehta hoon nahi kyunki meri story logo ko inspire nahi karega, unko morally down kar dega. Jo young ladke struggle karte hai unka himmat tod dega. It's so hard, so traumatic, so painful".
