In a glittering celebration of Indian cinema, Nani’s riveting film Dasara emerged as a standout, sweeping the FilmFare Awards with an impressive tally of six victories.
The mass and action extravaganza, which captivated audiences with its high-octane narrative and stellar performances, received widespread acclaim, reflecting its significant impact on the film industry.
Leading the charge was Nani, who clinched the Best Actor award for his compelling portrayal of Dharani. The award underscored Nani’s versatility and his ability to bring complex characters to life with authenticity and intensity.
Keerthy Suresh, who delivered a mesmerizing performance as Vennela, was honored with the Best Actress award.
The film’s success at the awards also extended to its technical and creative departments. Srikanth Odela is the first debut director to win a Filmfare Award and achieve a 100+ crore gross for his first movie.
Cinematographer Sathyan Sooryan’s work was also acknowledged with an award, while production designer Avinash Kolla and choreographer Prem Rakshit Master (Dhoom Dham song) were also honored for their work.
Each award reflects the dedication and creativity that went into making the film a resounding success, solidifying its status as a standout film of the year 2023.
Nani’s Hi Nanna director, Shouryuv, also won the Best Debut Director award, marking another cherished moment for the actor.
While speaking at the event, Nani stated that he is more pleased to see his technicians winning awards, rather than receiving them himself.
