controversy over filmfare awards the start of new age retaliation? - Page 5

I'm sorry - this doesn't make any sense. The award is for best ACTOR not best screenplay, story, or movie and should be judged separately. If an actor does a great job, their work shouldn't be discarded because the movie was problematic.

Last year, Ranveer won for Padmaavat and Ranbir for Sanju. Both characters were misogynistic and violent. Khilji's deranged as well. Both movies tried to glorify these two problematic characters.

This year, Alia was awarded for a "violent" and "angry" character as well.

Joaquin Phoenix also just won an Oscar for a character like the Joker with its multitude of issues! The movie received polarized comments with respect to violence as well.

I don't agree that actors should be penalized because the movie had issues. The award is not an endorsement of the character's behavior. It's a recognition of the actor's talent. Two extremely different concepts.

Truth is, if Ranbir or Ranveer had done the movie instead of Shahid, they would have won without question. It's another story that they wouldn't have done justice.

The problem is you talk too much sense and too late in the day! Its been going on for decades like this and will go on exactly the same way in the future too...

Sorry but we can’t just justify all of this by saying that it’s been happening for years and it’s nothing new. That doesn’t mean we cannot speak out against it. If people are speaking up then it’s a good thing

No. This is age of twitter warriors and clickbait youtubers.

This won’t do anything, except stir the pot for 30 seconds and then fade out of existence. When FF treats this crap next year, we’ll stir the post for 25 seconds, and then fade out of existence.

Yes, but do you think Filmfare will change how they work or continue on with the bias and noncredibility they show. do you think they will try and be more "fair" because of this

Plain and simple no 🤣

But continue to protest. Hopefully something happens. Im still of the opinion that this wasnt the worst Filmfare ever or even the worst Bollywood films awards . Thats all im trying to say.

Yes, It may not be the worst, but the retaliation is the strongest in my personal opinion. Previusly, they have not changed anything. But there may be a chance that they will be more cousious with how they hand out awards.

But of course expecting a huge change from them is not expected..they are not scared to indirectly admit that they hand out awards to bigger stars and feed the alreaady hyped up films.. because it helps with ratings.

The only way FF will change is if this affects $$$.

Strictly out of ethical reasons - bahahahahahaha. No.

Teri Mitty song is much better than Apna time Aayega nautanki

I wonder who still watch these award show? Now I know how boring these award shows are cant even stand for 5 mins!

there was a time it used to be so much fun to watch when the era SRK Saief and all were hosting!

I am soooo glad that Aamir totally boycott long ago and Salman stopped taking awards! They dont buy these Filmfare BS!

Yet it’s ok for Alia to win for Gully Boy? Which was also a toxic character

No. It wasn’t ok. I didn’t say it was.

Also, she wasn’t even the best among the nominees.
