Let’s begin from the categories
Nominations for Best Film this year include
- Balu Mahi
- Chupan Chupai

Well one wonders where is Arth ? and Mehrunisa V Lub U and Chalay Thay Saath too missing

- Ahsan Khan in Chupan Chupai
- Fahad Mustafa in Na Maloom Afraad 2
- Humayun Saeed in Punjab Nahi Jaungi
- Mohsin Abbas in Na Maloom Afraad 2
- Osman Khalid Butt in Balu Mahi
Well again this list left us baffled but nothing against OKB but Shaan’s performance in Arth do deserved a mention in nominations, well its the fact that it was better than Osman’s bronzed look in Balu Mahi. And what about Danish Taimoor in MVLU?
