So the Filmfare nominations are finally out. However, due to historical performance of Slumdog Millionaire at the Oscars, it is not getting much attention. By the way, I have compiled the list of Filmfare nominations in major categories like Best film, director, actor, actress etc. The Filmfare Awards is the oldest and most prestigious award ceremony of the Hindi film industry and is thus often referred to as “Bollywood’s Oscars”. Let’s check out the list of nominations for Filmfare 2009. Black has the record of winning maximum number, 11 filmfare awards in total, followed by Dilwale Dulhaniya Le Jaayenge(10 awards) and Madhumati(9).
