Alia Bhatt Sets New Record for Most Best Actress Filmfare Awards: Is She That Good?
Alia Bhatt Achieves a Historic Win
In a remarkable turn of events at the 70th Filmfare Awards, Alia Bhatt has made history by surpassing legendary actresses Nutan and Kajol with her sixth Best Actress award. This year, she was celebrated for her performance in the film “Jigra,” bringing her total number of Filmfare accolades to six. This achievement has sparked discussions online, questioning the merit of her wins and whether they truly reflect her talents.
Breaking Records
Alia’s win for “Jigra” marks her third consecutive Best Actress award and officially establishes her as the record holder in this category. Previously, the record was shared by Nutan and Kajol, each with five awards to their names. This change in the Filmfare Awards landscape has raised questions about the legitimacy of her wins as some fans believe earlier actresses delivered stronger performances.
Mixed Reactions Online
Reactions across social media have been mixed. Some users have expressed doubts regarding whether Alia deserves all her wins compared to earlier generations of actresses. One user remarked on Reddit, “It seems disrespectful to nominees when she keeps winning.” Others compared Alia’s recognition to living legends like Sridevi and Madhuri Dixit, stating that future generations might overlook her compared to these icons.
However, not all discussions are negative. Some fans appreciate her talent and acknowledge her growth in the industry, appreciating the diversity she brings to her roles and performances.
About “Jigra”
“Jigra,” which features Alia as a determined sister attempting a daring jailbreak to save her brother, received critical acclaim but unfortunately underperformed at the box office, grossing only ₹55 crore against a budget of ₹80 crore. Despite this setback, Alia’s portrayal was praised by critics, cementing her place in the conversation around best performers of the time.
Next, Alia will be seen in projects under the YRF Spy Universe and directed by Sanjay Leela Bhansali, further solidifying her presence in Bollywood.
