Laudable performances, laughable Indian Award Ceremonies: Sridevi's losses were shocking


A few years ago we posted this gorgeous feature regarding Filmfare's un-fair (and plain delusional) practices of giving awards to sponsor-and-ratings-friendly stars versus honouring actors with meritorious performances. 

We found this image online and had to re-post. So funny but so true. Sridevi deserved awards for the above as well as honours of Mr India and Nagina but somehow those trinkets seemed to elude her. Now that nearly all Indian award ceremonies have turned into pure farce - Golmaal Best Film? Dhoom 2 performances awarded?! wtf? - we rest in solace that future generations will forever ponder how Sri didn't win more awards after viewing these or any of her incredible nearly 300 films!

Oh Sri... gone too soon.
