As the grand day’s veil dropped, everybody’s eyes were ticking on the 55th Filmfare Awards as to who all will emerge as the winner of the prestigious award. Stream of dazzling performances from various participants including the film personalities kept engaging the audience at the Yash Raj Studios on Feb 27.

 

Some years back, noted Shah Rukh Khan and Saif Ali Khan took the centre stage as the host of the event to woo the crowds. This year again the successful duo returned with rather a powerful comical impact that left the audience gripped in laughter and joy.

 

But the event was marred by Big B’s absence who voluntarily choose to miss the occassion as a sign of protest against the false news about his dearest daughter-in-law Aishwarya Rai’s pregnancy.

 

In this year’s filmfare event though the Best Actor went for the veteran actor Amitabh Bachchan but most of the crowd’s hearts vied for Aamir Khan who did an outstanding work in ‘3 Idiots’ for which he had received international recognition.

 

But the best news is that though Aamir could not bag the best actor award but his film ‘3 Idiots’ had the highest trophies in its stride which went in for various categories like Best Film, Rajkumar Hirani as the Best Director, Abhijat Joshi for the Best Story, Boman Irani as the Best Supporting Actor, Best Screenplay Award and Best Dialogue for Rajkumar Hirani and Vidhu Vinod Chopra.

 

May be better luck next time for Aamir as he has good many chances to outshine from his competitors.
