Priyanka Chopra rose up dramatically in the air seated in an imaginatively constructed Ganpati and showered the delighted audience with shiny bits of confetti. John Abraham wheeled by and caused a furore. The stunning Rekha voiced a Gulzar nazm as a tribute to the late Yash Chopra. Karan Johar sportingly danced along with his young proteges. Amitabh Bachchan cast a spell when he went up to accept a tribute to him. And master of ceremonies Shah Rukh Khan revved up the energy like only he can.

19th Annual Colors Screen Awards: Performances

As curtains went up on the 19th Colors Screen Awards at Mumbai’s Bandra Kurla Complex Saturday, the evening glittered with stars in the sky and stars on the ground. Nothing shone brighter than Bollywood though — honoured at the awards for an year in which, in the words of Shah Rukh Khan, it became bigger.

2012 indeed saw the small film become big, and the big film become bigger. It was the year a pregnant woman was the hero of a mainstream Hindi film and a middle-aged mother was brought centrestage. It was the year 100 crores became the benchmark for box office success while the most unusual relationship between a deaf mute young man and an autistic young woman touched our hearts. And above all, it was the year when story became the undisputed king.

Bogus awards

Manoj Bajpai did not get even a single award for his one of the best ever performances of Hindi cinema, from Gangs of Wasseypur...tells the credibility of such cine awards alone. Amazing that Anurag Basu gets award for Best director, barfi, a movie which has been copied scenes to scenes! While the master of all directors, Anurag Kashyap's name did not appear anywhere! Amazing that you found Nawazuddin's performance in boring Talaash better than the fireball performance of GoW! It is even insult to get such awards then.

What about Diana Penty???

Very unfair!! Ileana's already started getting awards, and I'm very disappointed! They should have made a new award like Best Breakthrough Performance, and I wouldn't mind Ileana winning that since I think Ileana did very well in Barfi! and she's a terrific actress, but it's not fair for her to bag all the Best Debutante awards for a film that wasn't her debut. I want Diana Penty (Cocktail) to get all, or at least some, Best Debutante awards, since she is actually a debutante, and acted well, unlike Alia Bhatt, Esha Gputa, Sunny Leone, Amy Jackson, etc, who have a lot of improving to do in terms of acting. Of course, I'm not saying that Diana is perfect...she has to improve too, but I really liked the way she carried herself in Cocktail, and managed not to be overshadowed by Deepika (even though Deepika was fantastic in Cockail). Anyways, here's hoping Diana gets some Best Debutante awards!
