MUMBAI: British actor Colin Firth has won his first major award for his role as the stammering George VI in Golden Globe nominated film The King‘s Speech.
Dame Helen Mirren, who is no stranger to playing royalty, curtsied as she presented him with the gong.
Firth bowed to her in return before he joked: "Maybe I am the Queen".
Firth‘s performance as the monarch who struggles to overcome his stammer, is tipped to reap huge gains at the Oscars too.
