Golden Kela Awards—the desi
version of Hollywood’s Razzies is a satirical take on Bollywood. It celebrates
and felicitates the “Cream of the Crap Cinema”. This year saw the 4th
edition of the event that is popularly held on Fool’s Day. I always look
forward to this event coz no one slaps the blah-est and crappiest movie makers
and actors better than them. So, thank you Random
Magazine and Sundaas Film Institute
for conceptualizing this and being the voice of the frustrating experience that
movie buffs like me go through at times.
And the Kela goes to…
Deepika Padukone – Worst actor – Aarakshan (What can we say…Sonam Kapoor, Nargis Fakhri…may
the best girl win!)
Imran Khan – Worst actor – Mere Brother Ki Dulhan (Although I disagree, I would have given it
to Shahid Kapoor for Mausam for even attempting to maaro tashan like the
Maverick)
Ra.One – Worst Movie (Seriously,
the new packaging was as tortuous as Endhiran)
Some Special award categories…
Baawra Ho Gaya Hai Ke Award - Pankaj Kapur for Mausam (My favorite category and how apt. FYI: The earlier recipients of this honor have been Ben Kingsley (Teen Patti), Denise Richards & Sylvester Stallone (Kambakht Ishq) and RGV for everything he has done…remember Aag, Naach…I curse the day of inception of such ideas!)
Aaja Nach Le Award for Worst Attempt at a Comeback - Esha Deol for Tell Me O Kkhuda (Practice makes a man perfect, but unawareness is a bigger crime!)
Lajja Awards for worst Treatment of a serious Issue - Aarakshan
Bas Kijiye Bahut Ho Gaya Award – Pritam (Sanjay Leela Bhansali should take this as a wake up call)
Shakti Kappor Award for Misogyny - Pyar Ka Punchnaama
Faltu Award for the Aptly Named Film – Faltu (Altoo Jalaltoo aayi bala ko taal tu…)
Hail Mogambo!
ReplyDeletei love this entry... and all these awards are soooo apt... altho if it were up to me, the Worst Actress one would have gone to Nargis Fakhri hands down.
Nargis Fakhri makes Katrina Kaif look like katherine Hepburn in acting...remember we read this in a review.
