I meant relatively. NA jury consists of people from different zones and I find it fairer. Lobbying happens sometimes there too though as some jury members have revealed. Saif winning best actor for Hum Tum is believed due to his mom's influence. One of the major reasons that makes NA more credible is that they just don't look at commercial success. Many good movies that have won haven't been commercially successful. That's not the case with FF(main awards)/

If I am wrong about this, I don't want to know to spare me the gyan...but IMO filmfare may be politicized just like the Oscars are. The National awards seem to be less politicized. Now again, if they are do not tell me. 😆

National Awards are undoubtedly the biggest and most prestigious- getting a NA is an honour!

Filmfare on the other hand are the most popular/hyped/have most consideration amongst the BW awards, bcos they are the oldest awards + they award on the basis of performance + how well received that role was by the audience (at least that is what it looks like though they are not fair many times too in giving the award to the deserving winners) It cannot be denied that Filmfare awards have a prestige of their own and are considered the biggest BW awards. Getting a Filmfare award is like being part of a legacy which a lot of star-actors have been part of.

Personally, I feel the Star Screen awards are the most credible amongst all the BW awards.

National Awards are more prestigious but then they have given it to Saif Ali khan in the past. So influence does matter there. But I feel Fimfare awards are much more popular in BW.

NA... Besides Giving Saif Best Actor award (only minor glitch, or say mistake they have done)... I feel they have been best in all parameteers
