Arjun Kapoor? Really? And Deepika and SRK for HNY? I'm guessing they were space fillers 😆.

I guess it will be the expected Shahid, Kangana, and then everything Queen for film, director etc. Music is between EV and 2States. Though I would like to be surprised and see PK get everything it's nominated for.

Rajkumar Rao for Citylights would have been a better option over both. Nevertheless, good to see Randeep up there.

"Best story- Chetan Bhagat for 2 States"

So since it's already established that IIFA nominators are high, might as well ask what they're taking cuz I can surely use summa that shit

Do they not read real books?
