How come Sonu Nigam didn't win Filmfare for this song?

Ayushmann Khurrana won for Paani da Rang!

maybe because Ayushmann is an actor and singer

Filmfare was not fare to sonu since initial days. Suraj huwa madham was one of the biggest song of 2001.. Gone to mitwa..... Tumse milke dil ka hai jo haal kya kahien strongest continder gone to bheege hont tere 2004......kabbi alvida na kehna 2005 alka yagnik won... And himesh reshamiya won for aashiq banaya....... Sun zara soniye Sun zara didn't nominated, sau dard hain sau raatien didn't nominated... On Contray to that udit narayan and kumar sanu got filmfare on highly medicore songs like mehdi laga ke rakhna , ab tere bin, yeh kali kali aankhien etc

I love shaan's jabse tere naina...... But Main Agar Kahoon deserved more and hence a better song

Pani da was a sensation back then. They had to give it to pani da

The juries saw the hyper activity of Sonu "warriors" online and had the opposite reaction.

Pani da rang was a fabulous song from Ayushman. The song was refreshing just like his entrance to Bollywood that year.

Abhi mujh me was more popular than pani da even at the time of release and perhaps that's why everyone bashed ayushman khurana on twitter and then sonu made a statement for people to chill out by saying everyone is gods child

Paani da rang was everywhere that year. Filmfare, like most awards isn’t about quality but popularity.
