It was truly a star-studded affair as the Dadasaheb Phalke Film Academy Awards took the evening by storm. Dadasaheb Phalke Film Academy Awards unlike any other rewards every person required to make a movie- from spot boys to our glamorous actors.

As the Vice-Chairman of the Academy Ms Neena Jalan quoted, “The Awardees are not chosen by the committee, every category has an association and they choose the awardees, this prevents any partiality. ”Among the Awardees were Style Icon-Shilpa Shetty, Evergreen Youth Icon-Anil Kapoor, Bold and Beautiful- Manisha Koirala, Social Crusader- Vivek Oberoi, Juhi Chawla bagged an award for Chalk n Duster, Raveena Tandon bagged an award for Maatr and Maadhu Chopra for her Marathi film Ventilator; amongst others. Aman Verma and Saahil Chadha were the hosts of the evening and set the stage on fire right from the first act.
