Filmfare Awards 2024
The 69th Filmfare Awards were an incredible occasion of filmmaking greatness. Vicky Kaushal’s “Sam Bahadur” and Shah Rukh Khan’s “Jawan,” which dominated the technical categories, were two of the most notable awards. The event took place at the magnificent Mahatma Mandir Convention & Exhibition Centre in Gandhinagar, Gujarat, and was hosted by Aparshakti Khurana and Karishma Tanna.
1. Sam Bahadur Is the Ultimate
Vicky Kaushal’s highly anticipated role as Field Marshal Sam Manekshaw in “Sam Bahadur” showcased its capabilities by winning three prestigious technical prizes. Meghna Gulzar, the film’s director, received praise for both its outstanding production design—created by Subrata Chakraborty and Amit Ray—and sound design, which was done by Kunal Sharma. The period drama was further given authenticity by the meticulous costume design work of Sachin Lovelekar, Divvya Gambhir, and Nidhhi Gambhir, establishing the film’s place in cinematic history.
2. Jawan Wins in a Visual Feast
On the other end of the spectrum, the likes of Spiro Razatos, Anl Arasu, Craig Macrae, Yannick Ben, Kecha Khamphakdee, and Sunil Rodrigues praised Shah Rukh Khan’s “Jawan” for its breath-taking action sequences and breathtaking visual effects, which were made possible by Red Chillies VFX. The film’s skill at creating a fully immersive cinematic experience was demonstrated by how well it blended these technological aspects into the story.
3. An Exhibition of Technical Expertise at Filmfare Awards 2024
Several noteworthy filmmaking accomplishments were also recognized during the technical awards ceremony. Two notable examples of technical mastery in Indian cinema are the mesmerizing cinematography in “Three Of Us” by Avinash Arun Dhaware and the evocative background score in “Animal” by Harshavardhan Rameshwar. In addition, the dynamic choreography of Ganesh Acharya in “Rocky Aur Rani Kii Prem Kahaani” and the meticulous editing of Jaskunwar Singh Kohli and Vidhu Vinod Chopra in “12th Fail” enhanced the audience’s experience by adding layers of depth and emotion to their respective films.
