The reason Bollywood Give Indicates Find it hard to Be Applicable.

What’s the first thing that involves your brain whenever you consider ‘Oscars’ or ‘Golden Globes’? Prestige. It’s different as it pertains to desi counterparts such as the 60 year old ‘Filmfare Awards’ or the much younger ‘Life OK Screen Awards’ (21 year old). ‘Oscars’, ‘Golden Globes’ and ‘Filmfare’ have one thing in keeping – a long legacy spanning over a half century. Oscar celebrates 87th year in 2015 whereas Golden Globes celebrates 72th year. Hollywood awards are noted for their fair and transparent process in selecting the winners. Over 6000 elite Academy members vote for Oscars to choose the yearly winners. For Golden Globes, it constitutes 93 prominent journalists from all around the world, who are members of Hollywood Foreign Press Association (HFPA), in the voting panel. When looking back, we could note that those two major awards had a clean run without many controversies questioning their legitimacy & the selection process. Needless to say, a calculated campaigning can still sway the Oscar & Golden Globe voters – somewhat (as we witnessed in the case of Shakespeare In Love in 1999 and Crash in 2015)! Brushing aside such minor hiccups, these awards continue to remain relevant and prestigious. The exact same cannot be said concerning the Bollywood awards. Especially since we have several new award shows, the prestige is the final thing they’re bothered about. bigg boss telugu vote

Where are Bollywood awards heading?

Well, it’s not going to a wonderful place – that’s certain! Controversies and corruption allow it to be quite difficult for the Award shows to remain relevant & significant. Speaking of Filmfare awards, it’s a favorite award. The subscribers of the Filmfare magazine decide the winners through voting (however, they introduced critic’s choice awards for few major categories to make it less dull). As all of us know, public is not at all times the very best judge as it pertains to quality of movies, acting and technical prowess. As Oscars realized, the folks who work in the commercial are the very best to judge the merit of a movie or artist. Now it’s too late for Filmfare awards to change their format. So, let’s not hound them on that matter. However, at the least they can be honest and fair in the way they select the favorite awards. If you take a deeper look, despite giving good performances and milestone movies, Aamir Khan and his movies always missed Filmfare awards. Same can be said about Ajay Devgn as well. To refresh your memory, both Aamir Khan and Ajay Devgn spoke contrary to the politics behind award shows. Aamir Khan boycotted all the award shows (of course, except National Awards and Oscars). Time and again, we hear allegations these awards are ‘fixed’ ;.It’s not only stars, fans likewise have spoken contrary to the dirty picture behind awards.

Award shows have grown to be an enormous televised event in India involving big money. So TRP matters. Who brings TRP? Big stars, who else! Don’t believe that it’s different in Hollywood. ABC, which can be under contract to broadcast Oscars until 2020, resorts to a variety of circus to improve the TRP of Oscars (did you forget Ellen Degenerator’s selfie stunt during last year’s Oscar Ceremony?) However, in Hollywood big stars don’t ask for money or favours to attend these awards. If they are nominated they will definitely arrive at the red carpet and graciously cheer the winner despite their bitter losses. They understand the fact maintaining a wholesome ecosystem of awards is a necessity for ensuring quality. In Bollywood, we hear a variety of stories concerning the insane demands of stars as it pertains to attending award shows.’ If you should be not going to give me an award and then don’t bother sending an invitation’ – this is apparently the motto of all of the major stars, in accordance with various reports. This contributes to hilarious award categories. For the ‘best actor’ category, some award shows give up to 5 different awards (best actor in a thriller, best actor in a dilemma, best actor in a comedy and goes on)! Then they invent very creative award categories to support a certain demanding actor! There clearly was a recent controversy regarding music awards, where Honey Singh was presented with best music director award ignoring A R Rahman & Amit Trivedi!

Bollywood fans have already been discussing concerning the pointlessness of Bollywood awards on social media marketing like Twitter and Facebook. It seems like everyone except award show organizers understands this growing criticism. Speaking of Oscars, we have something similar in Bollywood. IIFA (Indian International Film Awards), which came in to existence in 2000, is a worldwide Bollywood award show where nominations & winners are selected by peers in the industry. The glossy award function is generally held at an international venue outside India. Nevertheless, they keep honouring the least deserved winners. Moreover, they’re not far behind as it pertains to hilarious categories.

In short, Bollywood award scene is really a big mess right now. This can be largely attributed to the fact industry is disorganized to the core. They don’t have unity – they don’t have functional organizations for the actors and technicians. If they’d, it could have been easier in order for them to conduct their very own award show modelled on Oscars. In that case, a trusted outside agency (an agency named PricewaterhouseCoopers gets the responsibility for tabulating Oscar votes) are designed for the voting process in order to avoid politics and corruption. Also, it’d force the stars to attend the awards without seeking favours. Such a move could pick up the system. But who is going to achieve that? The leading actors are at loggerheads all the time. They fight over everything and their cold wars and camp systems are infamous in Bollywood. So that it would be a great deal to expect them to do something positive about this mess.
