Awards 2003 - Screen Awards
The Star Screen Awards concluded on the night
of Thursday, January 16, with Sanjay Leela Bhansali's Devdas going
home with 11 major awards.
After the Zee Fairglow Cine Awards last week,
Devdas scored the top four -- Best Actor Shah Rukh Khan, who tied
up for the honour with Ajay Devgan for Company, Best Actress Aishwarya
Rai, Best Film and Best Director Sanjay Leela Bhansali.
But while this epic missed awards for Best Music
Director, Best Supporting Actress and Best Art Direction at the
Zee Fairglow Cine Awards, Devdas secured all these three awards
for Ismail Durbar, Madhuri Dixit and Nitin Desai respectively
at the Asian Paints Screen-Videocon Awards.
Composer Nadeem Saifi, who expected to win the
award for Raaz, is very upset in London for what he perceives
as blatant discrimination against the "biggest musical hit of
2002".
Filmmaker Ram Gopal Varma won his first award
ever, when he won the Special Jury Award for his work in Company.
Meanwhile, here is a blast from the past. Vyjayanthimala
had flatly refused to accept the Best Supporting Actress Award
for playing the golden hearted courtesan Chandramukhi in Bimal
Roy's Devdas years ago. She had argued that she was not the supporting
actress in Devdas.
Now, Madhuri's award as Best Supporting Actress
for Devdas has raised many eyebrows.
Though Bhansali seems ecstatic about his favourite
actress winning the award, he is also extremely disappointed on
Kiron Kher's behalf.
"This is the second award she [Kiron] has missed
out on. It is truly sad that her work is not getting recognised."
