Yash Chopra and SRK |
First it was the critical acclaim, then the box-office success and now the industry acclaim! In what could be just the start of an award rich season, Chak De India , the inspirational sports blockbuster from Yash Raj Films was the big winner at the V. Shantaram Awards. The Shimit Amin directed film won for best film, best director, best actor, best editor and best sound, sweeping aside all other competition.
The V. Shantaram Award is considered a sign of the industry's recognition for its best achievements and are similar in that to the Oscars. It is also unique in the fact that films from all over the country are eligible.
Said Yash Chopra, Chairman of Yash Raj Films, "We are extremely proud of Chak De India and being awarded best film by a jury of distinguished film personalities makes us even prouder. These honors only strengthen our resolve to create unique films that not only resonate with audiences across the country, but also stand the test of time, as I believe Chak De India will do." |
