After ruling the Box-office in 2011, Balaji Telefilms’ head honcho Ekta Kapoor is all set to shine at the much touted and much awaited awards of the season, 18th Annual Colors Screen Awards. As the prestigious production house of the industry, Balaji Telefilms has bagged a whopping 20 nominations, highest ever for any production house, at the coveted Awards.
Films THE DIRTY PICTURE, SHOR IN THECITY and RAGINI MMS, all produced under Balaji Telefilms, have been nominated. While Vidya Balan starrer THE DIRTY PICTURE has picked 10 nominations, SHOR IN THE CITY which featured Tusshar Kapoor follows with 9 nominations. However, RAGINI MMS has bagged only one nomination.
Both THE DIRTY PICTURE and SHOR IN THE CITY have been nominated in the Best Film and Best Director categories. While THE DIRTY PICTURE was directed by Milan Luthria, SHOR IN THE CITY was helmed by director duo Raj Nidimoru and Krishna D.K.
Aamir Khan’s DELHI BELLY is next in the nomination lead. It has bagged 19 nominations.
