Versova- A lot has been written about the unfairness of award shows in recent times. When the list of Filmfare award nominations recently came out, Twitterati was enraged that Akshay Kumar and Manoj Bajpayee did not get even a nomination for their performances in Airlift and Aligarh respectively.
The Dangal girls, Fatima Sana Shaikh and Sanya Malhotra, may have received rave reviews for their debut, but they did not get nominated either.
As 'Filmfare awards on sale' trended on social media, composer Amaal Mallik has called out these award shows for not recognising the truly deserving.
He tweets ''It is so funny & surprising that you go out of your way and give a star kid all the new comer awards for the best debut, for a performance no one even saw,l....
Whereas a #DiljitDosanjh who deserved that award for #UdtaPunjab is nowhere !!
Amaal is in unforgiving mood for himself too" If you nominate a #Baaghi that has had average music, only a #SabTera #ChamCham & till a point it was #AgarTuHota that did decent, it's funny because a#BaarBaarDekho & #MSDhoni are bigger albums with 4 successful songs in each."
