Like Srk in Dilwale…but if he won for best
Actor than I’ll delete word filmfare from mine dictionary.
I think baby was the highest rated film of
2015.
And hamari adhuri kahani title song was chart buster song of the 2015
PRIYANKA SHOULD HAVE BEEN NOMINATED FOR BEST ACTRESS IN DIL DHADAKNE DO
Priyanka in Bajirao was better than deepika even why she is in the supporting role category n why isnt radhika apte nominated in the supporting category as well as nawaz for manjhi for Best ator n kalki for margarita
Every nomination for Dilwale besides Gerua is unnecessary.
Btw why the classic Manjhi is missing from every award show ?
@ indicine : this is a truth that the nominations r illogical this time. Akshay kumar who was praised by all not nominated anywhere. Film was praised by all still no nomination in best film neither best direction. U being such a big site now, we atleast expect your views on it n so the trade.
Useless awards. Only papon deserves award for singer. No Akki or amit trivedi. Disappointed
Best actor -tushhar kapoor for kkkh3
Best actress -katrina for fitoor
Best song-oh boy from kkh3
Best music-mastizadde
Best director-rohit for dilwale
Best singer-sonakshi sinha for aaj mood ki dahi kar di
Agree With Baba Ji
Akshay Kumar got more than 7000 votes from indicine readers one month ago
I think akshay kumar acted better than RK,SRK&Varun in BABY.Very disappoint to see that akshay was not nominated.this was just a foolish nominations made by the filmfare.Actually they dont want to give akshay the best actor award nor they did in last year and neither they will do in next year..akshay acted superbly in AIRLIFT but filmfare will not appreciate him …surely
Where is Critics Best Actor (Male/Female), Director/Film Nomination.
Ajay Devgan – Drishyam
Nawazuddin – Manjhi The Mountain Man
Irfan Khan – Piku & Talwar
Ayushman Khurana – DLKH
where is MASSAN,MARGITA WITH A STRAW, TITLI type movies which is hugely appriciated in forign award functions..
I wanted to see Akki but as Akki said Awards are MANUPULATING.
Am happy that Akki gave 4 entertaining films in 2015.
All films are in Top 11 at Box office.
Waiting for AIRLIFT.
Actual Best Movies of 2015 Baby & Drishyam are missing from the list.
Fake awards
Akshay kumar & Ajay Devgn should nominated for Baby & Drishyam
& Anupam kher & tabbu for supporting Role
Nawazudeen should nominate for bajrangibhaijaan too
Really Disgusting,
What you feel when you see tamasha & Dilwale In the list.
Sky 1:49 am : If it is about top grossers then why hypocrites like you people are blaming SRK’s nomination for Dilwale & for not nominating Ajay, Akki for average grossers like Baby, Drishyam which didn’t earn half of SRK’s Dilwale in worldwide ? Lol, you’re hypocrite just like your tiny idol .
Haha, Dilwale with a clash, lifetime 150 cr in India (semi hit – hit), 175cr in overseas ( ATBB ), almost 400cr worldwide ( hit-superhit ) while Taalash failed to cross 90cr in India (above average), failed to cross 50cr in overseas ( average ), failed to cross 200cr worldwide (flop or average) .
Still Acc to hypocrite actor’s hypocrite fans, Taalash is just a flop while Dilwale is a disaster, Lol .
Calling me by names which aren’t even my names willn’t make you a less hypocrite or a smaller loser when such names suit you better than anyone else.. If you are really interested to argue or mention me then reply in previous post and don’t run like a loser as usual otherwise keep your shit for your self . http://www.indicine.com/movies/bollywood/screen-awards-2016-winners/ .

@iam Dhakkan, dilwale is all time disaster because it is multi starrer while talash was a non commercial solo movie. you hypocrite fan of hypocrite fake actor, we all know your aukaat. talaash is a clean hit in india and super hit in overseas. while dilwale is a big disaster in india because it’s a multi starrer movie. have some shame you tiny flop star’s flop fan.
I am a fan from Mauritius. Now I understand why Kangana and Aamir do not attend these awards…I thought at least Filmfare has got some credibility…
Shah Rukh Khan & Kajol for Dilwale were unnecessary!!!! You omitted Akshay (Baby ) And Ajay (Drishyam) I hope Kajol doesnt attend the ceremony out of respect for her husband!
How can Sonam kapoor for Dolly ki Dolly be nominated as Best Actress instead of Aishwarya (Jazbaa), Kalki (Margarita), or even Richa Chadda (Masaan)….
Well SONAM KAPOOR WAS THE BIGGEST JOKE>>> I WAS SERIOUSLY SHOCKED TO SEE HER BEING NOMINATED AS BEST ACTRESS
So much inequality !!!!!! Grow India Grow !!!!!!
For best lyrics nd for best singer..
Hamari adhuri kahani song… must be nominated.
Arijit singh won awards for that song in many award shows.. but in filmfare it dosnt consider as nomination..
We have to stop considering filmfare as bollywood academy award…
Wat happn to filmfare???
They gave awards to method actor or star on basis of their performance in past days..
In 1976 sanjeev kumar was best actor for aandhi in front of one of the best nd popular performance of amitabh in deewar..
They gave awards to ompuri to anupam kher.. on performance
Now days they gave awards on popularity???
Bollywood award show sucks
@Imdhakkan the reason about I don’t like to argue with the idiot like you.You said talaash flop in India,average in overseas and average worldwide.Let you show something which I know is not fit in your mind.
When Talaash released.
Srk top grosser in domestic- Ra1- 114cr Hindi or 120cr all India,
srk films in overseas except mnik (which it self below 3i )- Jthj-13.5million,Ra1-10 million, Don2-11.7 million $.
WW- jthj- 211cr. or Ra1 with regional so may be 220at max.
are those were blockbusters for you.If so.
Talaash- 90cr domestic
Overseas – 9 million $
ww- 174cr.
Now you keep sating this is flop till disasterwale happened.
So you mean to say that you actor 200cr ww films are blockbuster while Aamir 174cr ww is average or flop.This lead to two conclusion.
1. You are expecting very low total for your actor films.
2. Aamir films which are 30-40cr less on worldwide level are flop so you expecting that as per Aamir stardom film should collect at least more than srk.
So you accepting mentally that srk is below than Aamir.
Now come to Dilwale figures.
Dilwale – 140cr Domestic all below Aamir last 3 holiday releases.
Overseas – 23.3 million$ overseas, again below Aamir top 3 overseas.
WW- 350-360cr max.Again below than Aamir last 3 festive release.
Point to be noted that Aamir has only 3 festive release since 2009-2014, while srk had 5 holiday releases in 2010-2015. Still struggling to surpass Aamir film.You know srk first time crossed Ghajini domestic figure in Hindi language after 4&half year with CE.Now chasing D3 from last 2 years forget pk.
Regarding calling with you different name, look yourself into mirror, you are calling Aamir with words like tiny,tingu etc and you think his fans give you respect.Grow up man.
No matter lot of people call it Filmfake awards !!!!!!!!!!!!
Flaws in nominations
1.baby not nominated for best film
2.Akshay kumar not nominated for baby
3.nawazzudin siddique for manjhi
4.i would prefer Aishwarya rai for jazbaa instead of sonam kapoor for dolly ki dolli(kapoors buy awards and nominations)
5.Richa chadda deserves nomination for maasan
6.irfan khan deserves for Talvar
The list is quite long…i want to stop here..
@Rajesh Kulkarni, there is a difference between supporting truly like a man even if you are sour from outside and supporting like sweet sugarly from outside and then bettraying. Srk fans fall in to the 2nd category. Even if we bash akshay, we still support his films and watch his films. While srk fans whom you are licking feet of, they only are sweet from outside but they never support his films. We bash akshay because of people like @sunny alcoholic who always show tantrums against other superstars. At least we still support akshay’s films but what about srk fans? You still wanna lick their feet? Also you might not have read properly how openly srk’s idiotic fans like @sss bash akshay many times and call him names like flop Kumar, flopaki, and many such names. Just read his comments in many old articles.
@Sky :
Don’t think it’s me who needs to improve his knowledge. Still wana say don’t be confused over the truth said by me & i was talking about KHNH, not KHKN, Read properly next time, Have a good day!
