Can somebody please explain why there are two categories in Filmfare awards- Best Actor/Actress popular and best actor/ actress critics? Why best actress Filmfare doesn't mean critics only? Is it because Filmfare wants to give best actress popular to hit movies & actors only and they want to give critics award to the real talent only. My point is Deepika won the best actress popular award because the movie was a hit,she did a decent job & Deepika is more popular than Sonakshi at the moment. But why did Sonakshi didn't win Filmfare critics choice award when she was unanimously praised for her performance in Lootera?


PS. I think Shahrukh is the only actor who got Filmfare award for a underperforming film Swades but then he is/was always very popular.
My knowledge about Bollywood is very mediocre so my apologies in advance if any information is incorrect😆

Edited to add a sentence.

Best Actress is the actress who wins by popular opinion, like a mix of a good year + popularity. Like how Deepika P is winning all the awards as she had a STELLAR year & was praised for her acting.

Best Actress Critics is far more prestigious when it comes to acting acclaim, as the critics choose the actress they feel who out-shone the rest, in the film fraternity. 😊 like Sonakshi won for Lootera at the Zee Cine Awards.

Those members who complain about Deepika's winning the Filmfare award as if she has snatched it away from Sonakshi can they explain why Sonakshi didn't win Filmfare critics award though she was praised so much by them(critics). These members continuously harp about Sonakshi's critical acclaim then why don't they answer this.

Some members here say Sonakshi got unanimous critical acclaim for her portrayal of Pakhi then why she didn't win Filmfare best actress critics award?They behave as if Deepika has snatched popular award from Sonakshi!

When awards are fake don't know why they are so bothered about Deeppika's winning them😛 And they always harp about Sonakshi's critical acclaim but they don't answer why She didn't get critics best actress award! Why they not crib about Shilpa winning the Filmfare critics award?

I believe that Nimrat Kaur was most deserving last year
Now should I sit at a Dharna outside Shilpa Shukla or Deepika's house?

Nimrat was fabulous in the lunchbox and because of she's not really popular on IF and her movie not called Lootera, no one complains about her absence from award shows 😛
