Veteran actress Dimple Kapadia is certain that her son-in-law, actor Akshay Kumar, who has already been conferred a Padma Shri award, deserves a national award too because she believes that he is a great entertainer.

"I think he (Akshay Kumar) deserves a national award. Nor for any movie as such but he has really grown as an actor and he is excellent in comedy beside that he is an allrounder, and most importantly he is a great entertainer," she told reporters at a cafe where she came to promote her upcoming film "Tum Milo Toh Sahi" here Monday.

Dimple maintains that getting award is a matter of luck.

"Honestly speaking, awards are just luck. Some give brilliant performances but they never get awarded and someone else gets it. I don't think an award is really important. Someone can perform far brilliant than you but you get the award, so it's not big deal," she said.

Dimple is sharing screen space with Akshay in director Nikhil Advani's "Patiala House" where he is again playing a role of a Sardar after Anees Bazmee's "Singh is Kinng" (2008).
