66th Filmfare Awards nominations full list: Ludo and Thappad lead with maximum nominations
The most awaited awards of the year, Filmfare Awards 2021 are back with a bang. The nominations for India's most loved award show is finally out. Although the previous year was one of the most challenging time for the entertainment industry, actors still worked hard to serve quality content to the audience.
With theatres shutting down and members of the film fraternity testing positive for the novel coronavirus, the year had been a roller coaster. As the number of OTT releases increased, the ball of entertainment kept rolling.
As the nominations are out, the black comedy Ludo and the hard-hitting drama, Thappad lead the race with eighteen and seventeen nominations in various categories respectively.
The 66th edition of the Filmfare Awards will be telecasted on April 11, 2021, at 12 pm only on Colors TV and simulcast on Filmfare’s Facebook Page.
