Kerala State Film Awards 2011

Dileep

This year's Kerala State Film Awards packs in a lot of surprises.Dileep finally manages to win one State Award for the Best Actor where as Swetha Menon gets one for her role in Ashiq Abu's surprise hit,Salt N Pepper.Though we seriously doubt whether Dileep's portrayal of Shahjahan in Vellaripravinte Changathy is award worthy we are happy for him.He didn't win one when he most deserved it(read Chandupottu,Kunjikoonan)but has walked away with one when no one expected him to do so.Ranjith's 'Indian Rupee' was undoubtedly the best movie of 2011 whereas we are still wondering why the jury gave the award for the best story for M Mohanan(Manikyakallu).Deepak Dev wins the award for the best Background Score for successfully lifting tunes from every other epic movie ranging from Gladiator to Troy and passing it off as his own in Urumi while Santhosh Sivan gets nothing for his brilliant frames in Urumi.Fahad Fazil bags an award for his very ordinary performance in Chappa Kurishu(we haven't seen 'Akam' yet)whereas Thilakan(Achutha Menon-Indian Rupee) loses the award yet again.Seriously,WTF?
The Winners are
  • Best Film – Indian Rupee (Ranjith/August Cinema)
