**shrugs**

Kareena ain't going to get the award here either, since she'd been nominated for 3I i8nstead of Kurbaan. Had she been nominated for Kurbaan, she would've had a greater chance. I guess Vidya is going to win all best actress award this year...

And I know this is going to brew a storm here... but I will say this: I am glad that Katrina had not been nominated here. :P

Did we have Zee Cine award?

I am happy with the nominations...looks fair to me.
 
I like how low budget films are being appreciated adn are included in a bigw ayin awards...that shows change of tides....but will an actor from a low budget film will GET an award if put against the Box Office puller that will take little more time.
