Why Are Filmfare And Other Indian Awards Shows A Joke?

There was a time when viewers fervently and excitedly waited for Filmfare and other Indian awards to be telecasted on television. Firstly, award shows urged the viewers to sit in front of the TV for hours to see so many stars on a single screen. Secondly, the award shows were considered ‘unpredictable'. They had no idea that even awards can be ‘fixed' or ‘sold'. This is because at that time, the abrupt tension and nervousness could be seen on the faces of nominees before the announcement of the winner.

But as time passed, the awards are becoming so gimmicky, that the spectators are more interested in seeing the performances than awards. This is sad, because the awards were push for the filmmakers for presenting a quality film. But instead they chose to felicitate the less crappy among the crappiest!

•Long ceremonies- People loves To get entertained by the performances of their favourite stars setting the stage on fire. but if they could just reduce the number of acts, it would make the format a lot less crispier and easy to digest. Shahrukh Khan, a good host is enough for entertainment. The Golden Globes didn’t have a single act and was still the most engrossing award show.

•TRP garnering business- How many times has it happened, whenever Katrina Kaif was on stage, the camera shifted to Salman Khan or Ranbir Kapoor sitting in the audience, acting weirdly, rolling their eyes, smiling. Do you think it is happening at the same time? Then, you are being fooled. This is all a play of edits.

•Sold- Power and money are two aspects that can buy anything in the world and when it comes to Indian awards then it is something that comes first. Why is it always that the same director, actors, producers are winning the awards every year? One call, some clicks and BOOM, the award is yours!

Many renowned entertainers like Amir Khan, Kangana Ranaut publicly confessed the business of awards going in the cinema industry. Organisers grant the awards in response to the performance to the performers in place of money.
