Sangeeth, who bagged the award for Best Editor, was photographed fast asleep while hugging his award sculpture, a candid moment captured and shared by director Dinoy Paulose. Dinoy playfully captioned the image, “After Messi and Rohit Sharma, it’s our boy!” The photo was also shared by actress Anna Ben on her social media.
