FilmiBeat
English
actor
Ralph
Fiennes
had
once
famously
said,
"Awards
are
like
applause,
and
every
actor
likes
to
hear
applause."
After
all
the
hard
work
and
sweat
that
goes
into
bringing
a
story
into
life
on
the
big
screen,
one's
joy
knows
no
bound
when
he
or
she
sees
himself/
herself
holding
the
coveted
trophy
with
the
crowd
clapping
and
cheering
in
the
audience.
Last
night,
the
much
awaited
20th
edition
of
IIFA
Awards
took
place
in
Mumbai
and
it
saw
the
attendance
of
the
big
names
from
Bollywood
including
Salman
Khan,
Deepika
Padukone,
Katrina
Kaif,
Alia
Bhatt
and
others.
Of
course,
the
highlight
of
the
evening
was
the
announcement
of
the
awards.
Ranveer
Singh
walking
away
with
the
'Best
Actor' award
for
'Padmaavat'
was
no
surprise!
Anybody
who
has
seen
the
film
would
whole-heartedly
agree
that
the
talented
star
deserved
the
award
for
his
impressive
act.
At
a
time
when
most
Bollywood
actors
still
shy
away
from
taking
up
negative
roles
(Salman
Khan
had
famously
said
that
he
will
never
play
a
villain
in
a
film),
Ranveer
took
up
a
route
seldom
taken
and
left
a
lasting
impression.
As
the
merciless
Aladdin
Khilji,
with
his
scarred
face
and
koel-rimmed
eyes,
the
man
made
you
shudder
as
he
unleashed
madness
and
mayhem
on
the
big
screen.
The
actor
passed
the
exam
with
flying
colors
without
making
his
character
appear
OTT
or
caricaturish
in
any
way.
The
next
winner-
Alia
Bhatt
took
the
trophy
back
home
for
'Best
Actress'
for
'Raazi'.
After
Imtiaz
Ali's
'Highway',
Meghna
Gulzar's
'Raazi'
is
another
milestone
in
Alia's
filmography
where
she
took
everyone
by
surprise
with
her
matured
performance.
As
a
girl
who
is
caught
between
her
family
life
and
the
duties
for
her
nation,
the
actress
gave
her
heart
and
soul
to
her
character
Sehmat
and
made
you
feel
every
emotion
of
hers
as
your
own.
You
wanted
to
reach
out
and
hug
her
everytime
you
saw
her
in
an
emotional
turmoil.
Each
time,
she
escaped
the
danger
narrowly,
your
heart
skipped
a
beat.
From
'Student
Of
The
Year'
to
the
current
phase
in
her
career,
Alia
has
transformed
herself
in
the
finest
way
possible
as
an
actress.
Last
but
not
the
least,
Ayushmann
Khurrana's
'AndhaDhun'
won
the
awards
for
'Best
Story'
and
'Best
Direction'.
They
say,
'Thrillers
are
like
life,
more
than
life
than
you
are'
and
this
film
made
sure
that
one
had
a
gripping
ride.
Writing
thrillers
isn't
any
easy
job
because
you
need
to
keep
the
audience
hooked
to
their
seats
right
from
the
first
frame
till
the
last.
In
'AndhaDhun',
Sriram
Raghavan
aced
both
the
departments-
writing
and
direction.
With
delicious
twists
and
turns
and
clever
use
of
motifs,
the
filmmaker
just
everyone
guessing
till
the
end.
Further,
the
brilliant
performances
by
Ayushmann
Khurrana,
Tabu,
Radhika
Apte
and
Anil
Dhawan
added
more
to
the
fun.
That's
one
of
the
reasons
why
the
film
clicked
both
with
the
masses
and
classes
and
even
earned
three
National
Awards
this
year.
Meanwhile,

year?
