Fans raged after no award for SRK
Amidst the glamour and ecstasy among the winners of FilmFare Awards and their fans, there has emerged a controversy and outrage on social media after the king of Bollywood, the Shah Rukh Khan was not given even a single award.
Fans argue that he has given the most successful films of Bollywood in the past year of 2023 with his two films, Jawan and Pathan entering the 1000 cr Club.
According to his fans, to not appreciate SRK for reviving Bollywood and bringing people back to theatres, is an injustice, offering a glimpse into the opaque nature of these Award selection procedures.
