Congratulations to both Rekha and Vishal. Ishqiya was just amazing! I thoroughly enjoyed it! Dil To Bachcha Hai Ji is such a good song, I love it!😳

Ishqiya's music was amazing. Congrats to Vishal and Rekha Bhardwaj :D Well deserving!! 🥳

@Nitu
In this case, the VB refers to Vishal Bhardwaj..not Vidya Balan :) Vidya didn't win the national award.

Bollywood won about 4 awards this time--Dabangg best popular, Do Dooni Chaar--best hindi movie, and Rekha and Vishal won the music awards :)
