Dhanush stole the show with his candid comments at the press conference held in Chennai to announce the nominees for the much-anticipated 58th Idea Filmfare Awards 2010 (South), which will be held in Hyderabad on July 2.���������It���������s an honour for me to be associated with the prestigious Filmfare awards,��������� said the National Award-winning actor, who flew down from Singapore to attend the event, ���������I���������ve not yet won an award but am planning to attend this year���������s function.���������
Despite having much to worry about, his father-in-law Rajinikanth���������s health on the top of the list, the actor kept his cool and answered the questions posed by the media.
On Rajini���������s health, he said, ���������He is responding well to the treatment. He should be back in the city in 10 days time. If we don���������t return in 10 days, it���������s because we are on a vacation!���������
Rajinikanth, the actor said, was quite cheerful in the hospital. ���������He���������s watching movies, eating well and is, in fact, in a great mood to shop!���������
About being announced as a National Award winner for his performance in the Tamil film, Aadukalam, Dhanush said, ���������I���������m still blank because of Superstar���������s health issues and it���������s still not sunk in.���������
