Filmfare OTT Awards 2024: Diljit Dosanjh, Kareena Kapoor Khan take home top honours in film category

Mumbai (Maharashtra) [India], December 2 (ANI): The 5th edition of the Filmfare OTT Awards took place on Sunday, December 1, in Mumbai, bringing together a galaxy of stars from the world of digital entertainment.

This year’s ceremony honoured outstanding web series and films, with winners across 39 categories.

The event was marked by stellar performances, heartfelt speeches, and a celebration of the rapidly evolving digital entertainment landscape.

One of the evening’s biggest moments came when actor-singer Diljit Dosanjh clinched the Best Actor award for his portrayal of the legendary singer Amar Singh Chamkila in the web film ‘Amar Singh Chamkila’.

Directed by Imtiaz Ali, ‘Amar Singh Chamkila’ presented the untold true story of Punjab’s original rockstar of the masses, who emerged from the shadows of poverty and rose to the heights of popularity in the eighties due to the sheer power of his music, angering many along the way, which led to his assassination at the young age of 27.

Diljit portrayed ‘Chamkila,’ the top-selling artist of his era. Parineeti essayed the role of Amar Singh Chamkila’s wife, Amarjot Kaur.

On the other hand, Kareena Kapoor Khan bagged the Best Actress award for her performance in ‘Jaane Jaan’.

Helmed by Sujoy Ghosh, the film is based in Kalimpong and is the official adaptation of the bestselling novel ‘Devotion of Suspect X’ by Keigo Higashino. Maya (Kareena Kapoor Khan), Naren (Jaideep Ahlawat) and Karan (Vijay Varma) navigate through a web of emotions and unforeseen circumstances as they cover up and uncover clues in a bid to outwit each other.
