The Kerala State Film Awards 2016 has come as a breath of fresh air to the entire industry and all genuine movie aspirants. Read the article to know more..
The
results
and
the
winners
of
Kerala
State
Film
Awards
2016,
which
was
announced
yesterday
is
still
the
talk
of
the
town.
The
best
part
is
the
fact
that,
the
controversies
that
usually
crop
up
post
the
declaration
of
such
awards,
have
taken
the
backseat
this
time.
Having
said
that,
this
year's
Kerala
State
Film
Awards
have
come
as
a
breath
of
fresh
air
to
the
Malayalam
film
industry.
Be
it
Vinayakan
winning
the
title
for
the
Best
actor
or
Rajisha
Vijayan
bagging
the
title
for
the
Best
Actress,
the
decisions
made
by
the
jury,
will
definitely
go
down
as
one
of
the
best
in
the
recent
times.
On
this
note,
we
take
you
through
an
analysis
that
would
let
you
know
how
Kerala
State
Film
Awards
2016
has
turned
out
to
a
special
one..
Breaking
The
Stereotypes
Awarding
Vinayakan
the
title
of
a
Best
Actor
is
a
revelation
of
its
sorts.
By
this
decision,
the
jury
has
made
it
clear
that
an
actor
needn't
be
the
solo
lead
hero
of
the
movie
to
get
the
tag
of
a
Best
Actor.
Vinayakan
had
comparatively
lesser
screen
space
than
Dulquer
Salmaan
in
Kammatipaadam,
but
that
was
not
a
reason
to
deny
him
the
big
award.
Small-Yet-Quality
Films
Take
The
Centre
Stage
Since
its
days
of
inception,
Kerala
State
Film
Awards
have
been
a
platform
to
identify
the
brilliance
in
small-yet-quality
movies,
which
are
finding
it
hard
to
reach
the
theatres.
With
films
like
Manhole
and
Ottayaal
Paatha
taking
the
centre
stage,
once
again
the
faith
in
the
Kerala
State
Film
awards
have
been
reinstated.
This
will
allow
more
independent
film-makers
to
make
quality
movies,
without
fearing
about
the
commercial
aspects
of
a
movie.
Inspiration
To
Many
Woman
Film-makers
For
the
first
time
in
the
history
of
Kerala
State
Film
Awards,
a
woman
film-maker
was
adjudged
as
the
Best
Director
by
the
jury.
Vidhu
Vincent
and
her
big
achievement
will
act
as
an
inspiration
to
many
woman
film-makers
out
there,
who
dream
to
make
it
big
in
the
world
of
film-making,
which
was
once
considered
to
be
a
man's
world.
Box
Office
Success
Is
Not
The
Sole
Factor
Many
celebrated
blockbuster
movies
of
2016
didn't
make
it
big
at
the
awards.
Among
the
commercially
successful
movies,
only
Maheshinte
Prathikaram
and
Kammatipaadam,
could
make
it
to
the
final
cut.
Unlike
the
previous
years,
we
didn't
see
the
commercially
successful
Malayalam
movies
taking
the
centre
stage.
The
jury
members,
with
their
decision,
has
made
it
clear
that
box
office
success
of
a
film
isn't
the
sole
criteria
to
assess
the
quality
of
a
movie.
Staying
Close
To
The
Public
Opinion
Here
is
another
reason
to
call
this
year's
awards
as
a
welcome
change.
Most
of
the
major
awards
went
to
those
people,
for
whom
the
general
public
had
wished
it
for.
And
hence,
Kerala
State
Film
Awards
2016
is
being
applauded
by
the
public,
as
well.
Kerala
State
Film
Awards
of
the
past
few
years
were
surrounded
with
controversies.
Many
were
of
the
opinion
that
it
was
getting
commercialised
to
an
extent.
But,
this
year's
awards
have
reposed
the
faith
on
one
of
the
most
prestigious
film
awards
of
the
state.
Anyhow,
we
take
this
opportunity
to
congratulate
all
the
big
winners
and
the
jury
as
well,
which
dared
to
kick-start
a
much
needed
change.
