Greetings, my dear Bollywood aficionados! It’s your favorite nosy neighbor from the glitzy lanes of Mumbai, Bollywood Newshound Nisha, here to spill the chai on the latest from B-town’s OTT glitterati!
The much-heralded Hindi Movie News OTT Awards 2024 unfolded in all its dazzling glory on October 4 at the swanky Taj Lands End, Mumbai. The night was a starry constellation of OTT luminaries and industry bigwigs, all gathered to bask in the limelight and perhaps snag a shiny trophy or two. 🎉✨
In the realm of Original Series, the illustrious Panchayat Season 3 clinched the Best Original Series of the Year. Hats off to Shiv Rawail for bagging Best Director with The Railway Men. And applause please for Manoj Bajpayee and Sonakshi Sinha, who took home Best Actor Male and Female for Killer Soup and Heeramandi: The Diamond Bazaar, respectively. 👏
Amar Singh Chamkila by Imtiaz Ali stole the spotlight as Best Film in the Original Films category. Meanwhile, Vijay Maurya and Payal Arora were the scribes of the hour, winning Best Story and Screenplay for Mast Mein Rehne Ka. Neena Gupta’s stellar performance in the same film earned her the Best Actor Female accolade, while Babil Khan was crowned Best Actor Male for his role in Friday Night Plan. 🎬
And who could forget the People’s Choice Awards? The crowd-pleasing Heeramandi took Best Original Series, while Gullak Season 4 continued its winning streak as Best Franchise Series. Tillottama Shome and Jitendra Kumar charmed their way to Best Actor awards in their respective categories, proving once again that talent knows no bounds. 🌟
Among the night’s other sparkling gems, Tejasswi Prakash was hailed as Iconic Artist of The Year, Jennifer Winget dazzled with Charismatic Performance of The Year, and the dynamic duo Ali Fazal and Richa Chadha were anointed as the Most-Loved Couple of The Year. 💑
Nisha’s Nutshell: In the whimsical world of Bollywood, if you’re not taking home an award, at least make sure to take home the paparazzi’s attention with your dazzling attire. After all, in Bollywood, the red carpet is as much a battleground as the awards themselves! 🤩
Stay tuned, darlings, for more irreverent insights from the Bollywood circus. Until next time, keep your Bollywood dreams as sparkling as a sequined saree!
