The Kela for the worst actress of the year goes to — Sonam Kapoor for Aisha. Keeping her company as the worst actor was King Khan Shah Rukh, for My Name is Khan. Anchor Cyrus Broacha didn’t expect either to be present at the third annual Golden Kela Awards on Friday at Rock Dome, a hall at the Ambience Mall in Gurgaon, and he wasn’t disappointed. The Bollywood equivalent of the Razzies, this is one award ceremony the filmy crowd loves to ignore.
Ben Kingsley had the dubious honour of winning a newly instituted award, “Baawra Ho Gaya Hai Kya Award” for Teen Patti while the “Jajantaram Mamantaram Award” for the worst named film was given to Lafangey Parindey. The winner of the “Sonu Nigam Career Suicide Award” was Sukhwinder Singh for Kuch Kariye.
This year, the Kela also recognised the saviours of 2010 in the form of an award called “The Saving Grace Award”. Unlike previous years, there was some Bollywood presence this year on the red carpet of the Golden Kela Awards — directors Habib Faisal, Vishal Bhardwaj, Abhishek Chaubey and actor Pradhuman Singh were present in the front row. Faisal received the Saving Grace award for Do Dooni Chaar while Bhardwaj and Chaubey won it for Ishqiya.
