Was Vidya Balan really more deserving to win both times over Sridevi for Kahaani and Tumhari Sulu? Filmfare always seemed too obsessed with awarding Vidya imo

Not only was Sridevi better than Vidya that year, she was better than all competitors vying for best actress. priyanka was a close secodn for BARFI. Vidya was a distrinct third, IMO.



SHE TOTALLY DESERVED IT FOR 2012.


sridevi>>>>>>>priyanka>vidya IMO

Vidya wasn't more deserving...but she was also deserving.

The "why", we don't know, do we?

Undeserving stars always gets more filmfare, like Khan Saab & Vidya.

Vidya having 4 of those should make people as squeamish as anything smiley36

PC deserved all the awards that year. But Vidya was a close second

Sridevi was good but the other two were better

Sridevi won National Award for Mom. But alas, post her demise though!

I guess Vidya was flavour of the season then. That might be the reason🤷

Sri in EV was >>>>>>>> any contemporary actors since 1980s in any movie. Her only competition was Shabana Azmi ans the late Smita Patil. And yes I did consider Tabu.


Sri deserved every award for EV, Kahaani as a movie whole is my fav because of its genre. But the winning card of that movie was its screenplay and story and the factor that it was based on Kolkata for me smiley36. Not because of Vidya alone. smiley24


Mom I somewhat agree. Tumhari Sullu had more range than Mom.
