Re: Star Screen Awards 2008 Winners

lol…i am just watching this Rock on…and o man…they ripped off majority of Junoon’s songs :hehe:

one of their song is a rip off “mahi” by junoon.
lol. no doubt classical music and even simple music is very appreciated in india…but still they are really far far away from pop, rock, metal, progressive rock, hard rock, etc.

Re: Star Screen Awards 2008 Winners

AMIR KHAN DESERVED TO WIN HANDS ON in all the actor categories! why did that ugly fat giraffe jaado ka dost win even when the movie was a flop in india ;s
IMRAN KHAN DESERVED TO WIN!!

*Ashwariya didn't deserve to win anything!!!

Plus i have noticed that these awards are not at all fair, since the beginning. They either let the people who won't win any other awards win or probably they are friends with people.

Actor Akshay Kumar | Star Screen Awards | Aamir Khan | Movie Ghajini | Singh Is Kinng

Akshay Kumar the undisputed king of Bollywood carries a grief with him of not winning the Best Actor Award ever in his life. But the actor surprised everyone with his humbleness and humility when he refused to accept the Most Popular Actor Award for his performance in Singh Is Kinng. Akshay’s argued that Aamir Khan deserved it more for his performance in Ghajini](http://moviesgallery.oneindia.in/main.php?g2_itemId=850107).

Akshay said that Aamir had delivered an awesome performance in Ghajini and it is he who deserved the award. He requested Aamir to accept the award in his place. Akshay’s gesture has earned him praises from all quarters in Bollywood and set the right tone for his latest movie Chandni Chowk To China. It will be interesting to see if Aamir accepts the awards considering his dislike for attending award functions.

Re: Star Screen Awards 2008 Winners

^ lol. prolly he wants to act along with amir khan…afterall amir’s almost all the last 5-6 movies were the block busters :hehe:
and this ghajini has already break all the past records of highest grossing bollywood (prolly still haven’t passed sholay as it is still being screened in several indian, china cinemas, but this ghajini marks itself as #2 in a very short span of time)

^ I dont know where you get your Bollywood gossip from, but its pretty inaccurate :wink:

Akshay Kumar is ruling Bollywood these days and while Amir Khan might be the thinking man’s superstar, when it comes to box-office collections its Akshay Kumar all the way.

Re: Star Screen Awards 2008 Winners

I think he was sincere when he refused to accept the award. It's not like he's Shahrukh Khan who wins atleast one award every year.. if SRK did that, it would make sense because he has so many why would he care.
To give it up for your colleague is quite gracious especially when you don't even win any to begin with.

lets see

Amir Khan:
2006: Rang De Basanti, Fanaa
2007: Taare Zameen Par
2008: Ghajini

and served as producer: Jaane Tu Ya Jaane Na, and for Oscars.

offical entry of india for Oscars.

  • Lagaan (2001)…Selected in top five oscars nominees.
  • Taare Zameen Par (2007)

^ All of them were block busters.

Akshay Kumar, ya with the boring movies like Humko Deewana Kar Gaye, Tashan he is ruling Bollywood.:hehe:

ps. joking…i like his acting…in fact he is pretty funny and witty actor. but he is mainly chosen for masala movies, so he really needs to get selective.

but as the news said that he never got a award for best actor, so i think him giving award to amir khan is just an expression of retaliation against these biased awards.

no matter what…serious acting is easy (i.e. SRK melo drama), whereas bringing smile to people’s face is way harder and he sure deserve an award…but all he need to have a block buster under Yash Raj film’s Banner, or UTV :smiley:

ps2. i am a media student, and bollywood is also one my main focus. : )

Re: Star Screen Awards 2008 Winners

^^ Well, if you want to count Akshay Kumar has had 6 superhits in the last couple of years itself -

Heyy Babyy
Namastey London
Bhool Bhulaiyaa
Welcome
Singh is Kinng
Chandni Chowk to China

Add the total collections and returns to distributors, and Akshay is far ahead. Of the Aamir films you have mentioned, Rang De Basanti was a multi star cast movie which was a hit mainly because of its theme and great music, Fanaa had Kaajol (need I say more ??), and of course Taare Zameen Par had Darsheel and an awesome story. Almost all the Akshay movies I have mentioned would have been flops if not for Akshay. they really did not have much meat in them.

For a "non-actor" like Akshay who typically does not win awards, its very gracious to even suggest that someone else deserved it more than him.

And for the record, I am a huge Akshay Kumar AND Aamir Khan fan.

i agree. Amir khan has proven himself again and again. he comes out with one movie a year but spends months just getting into the character. He looks great in ghajini..he worked hard on that body and with that age it is not easy…with many actors deteriorating due to alchohol abuse…

i also noticed he never shows up for the awards. When Lagaan won many awards a time back his whole team was there except him. dont know the whole story.

glad hrithik won (in a movie not by his dad lol) glad shahrukh khan did not win. yay ash won! (although I loved her in Guru…much more than in jodha akbar where her role was not interesting). and LOVE the khuda jaanay song! im so addicted to it. & i wish tushaar kapoor would just go away.

Re: Star Screen Awards 2008 Winners

^ ^
I read sumwhere that Aamir kinda lost trust and faith in the Indian award system n that he doesnt believe in the authenticity of the selection n winning process..(sumfin like that) Although he made an exception for the Oscars.. which he did attend when his movie Lagaan was nominated..

What I also heard.. is that when Aamir's movie r released.. he goes undercover to cinema's to observe how the crowd reacts 2 his moviez.. I dont know whether thas true.. but I heard it a few times..

Re: Star Screen Awards 2008 Winners

There should be a best Versatile actor and i reckon Amir khan should get it because of the versatality in the roles that he plays in his films they'r all different like taare Zameen par he had a total different part to play then what he did in Ghajini or Lagaan.

were as other actors in the film industry suck as SRK play alot of the same roles over and over again, like his role in rab ne banadi jori was alot similar to kal ho na ho and kabhi alvida na kehna etc. :@:
