63 Jio Filmfare awards 2018 nominations: Rajkumar Rao snubbed for Best actor, Newton for Best film

The nominations for 63rd Jio Filmfare awards 2018 have been announced. The most prestigious populist show of the Indian Film Industry is going to take places 20 January 2108. When the nominations were announced, there were already some snubs and shocking additions that made the social media frown and ask why certain artists were left out while others got nominated. The film twitter and fan clubs were ready to pounce on the omission of Raj Kumar Rao in the Best Actor category, for either Newton or Trapped. He did get a supporting actor nomination for Barilley Ki Barfi, but it isn’t enough for an actor who was awarded international awards in other movies. The twitter also questioned the omission of Newton from Best Picture category, because it was India’s choice to compete at the oscars, so it not being nominated for the local awards was shocking to many, who expressed their anger at the decision. However, some were happy to see SriDevi nominated for Best Actress for Mom, and Ratna Pathak for Lipstick Under my Burkha, however, the decision to put her in Supporting category was also questioned.

The voting was done by going to the official site of the awards and filing on your own ballot. Kangana Ranaut’s snub for either Rangoon and Simran was also quite shocking, as even though the movies might not have been financially successful, her performance was really praised by the critics.
