The Filmfare Awards ceremony is one of the biggest award ceremonies for the Bollywood fraternity. The Filmfare Awards celebrated its 65th rendition on Saturday. Gully Boy emerged as the biggest winner during this year's award ceremony. The Zoya Akhtar directorial bagged a total of 13 awards at the ceremony and made history.
Yet one songwriter is not too pleased about not winning an award. Manoj Muntashir took to twitter after the award ceremony to express his sadness. Major Muntashir is the songwriter behind 'Teri Mitti' from Kesari starring Akshay Kumar. The songwriter claims that his song from the film should have won an award. He also announced that he will no longer be attending film award shows.
He wrote, “Dear Awards... Even if I try all my life.. I won’t be able to write a better line than.. ‘Tu Kahti Thee Tera Chaand Hoon Main Aur Chaand Humesha Rehta hai’. You failed to honor the words which made millions of Indians cry and care for their motherland. It would be a great disrespect to my art if I still continue caring for you. So here I bid you a final goodbye. I announce - I won’t attend any award show till I breathe my last. Alvida.”
Manoj Muntashir wasn't the only person to question the legitimacy of the award ceremony. Other netizens also took to social media handles to question whether Ananya Pandey deserved her award for her work in Student of the Year 2.
