The nominations for the 63rd Filmfare Awards are out and Rajkummar Rao and ‘Newton’ are major missing!

Like always, soon after New Year begins, the nominations for the biggest Hindi film awards (Filmfare) come out. The prestigious award is given to the actors for their contribution in the Hindi films. The year 2017 saw many ups and downs but also gave some commendable movie. But outperforming all actors, Rajkummar Rao emerged as an established star. He starred in one of the finest films of the year, ‘ Newton ’, which even was selected as India’s official entry to the Oscars but shockingly neither the film nor Rajkummar made a spot in the best actor and best film category. Where actors like Varun Dhawan and Shah Rukh Khan got nominated for their films, ‘ Badrinath Ki Dulhania ’ and Raees ’ respectively; Rao got a nomination for the supporting actor for his film, ‘ Bareilly Ki Barfi ’. Well, we don’t know why he did not get nominated for the best actor but we hope he at least gets a Filmfare from critics.

Surprisingly, ‘ Jagga Jasoos ’ got the maximum nominations - a total of 9, followed by ‘ Bareilly Ki Barfi ’ and ‘ Badrinath Ki Dulhania ’ with 8 each, 7 nominations for ‘ Secret Superstar ’ and 6 for ‘ Newton ’.
