Eniola explained that Bobrisky was chosen for the award because of his controversial nature, which would naturally draw attention to the event and the movie.

However, social media users expressed mixed reactions to this explanation.
Some criticized the decision, questioning its effectiveness in promoting the movie, while others expressed indifference or disappointment.
