Actor Varun Dhawan won the Best Actor (Male) for the film "Badrinath Ki Dulhaniya" and felt very special and overwhelmed by receiving such an appreciation for his performance.

But more than his achievement, he emphasized on one of the issues that the film addressed.

Urging youngsters not to take dowry, Varun said: "It is really worrisome how even in today's time, not only in the rural area but also in urban families, the practice of taking dowry exists."

"All youngsters who are listening to me, really love me and admire me, then I would like to tell you that listen to me and say 'no', a big 'no' to dowry. If your family is taking it, step down, be rigid and make sure, as a grown-up man, you do not take dowry because it is high time that we stop such a practice," he added.

Zee Cine Awards 2018 will air on Zee Cinema on December 30.
