The 60th Britannia Filmfare Awards: A star studded extravaganza

It’s a milestone year in the history of film awards in India. This year will be the 60^th edition of the coveted and much celebrated Filmfare Awards.

The 60^th Britannia Filmfare Awards will be held on January 31, 2015 in Mumbai at the yrf studios. The highlights of the awards show will be the young and dynamic movie stars with their untamed charisma. An exclusive roster of the youngest new talents like Alia Bhatt, Shraddha Kapoor, Varun Dhawan and Arjun Kapoor will entertain their peers and movie buffs at a glitzy and ultra glamorous evening. The fresh combination of comedian Kapil Sharma and the charming Karan Johar along with Arjun Kapoor will be hosts to a spectacular night. The kind of electric night seldom witnessed or experienced in the entertainment industry. The all time favorites Salman khan and Ranbir Kapoor will entertain their fans with their scintillating performances. Along the way, 31 talents from the film industry will be honoured for their superlative filmmaking efforts in 2014.

The nominees for these elite categories are chosen after an exhaustive voting process across multiple platforms, where movie maniacs from across the country cast their choices for their best films, actors and technicians. The votes from online, mobile and mail-in sources are then computed in an exhaustive effort to arrive at the crème de la crème of performers. The winners will be chosen from these groups of achievers after a jury of film industry professionals cast their votes.
