Filmmakers Kabir Khan and Nithilan Swaminathan were jointly awarded Best Director for their work on Chandu Champion and Maharaja. Vidhu Vinod Chopra’s 12th Fail, based on Anurag Pathak’s 2019 non-fiction book about Manoj Kumar Sharma’s journey from extreme poverty to becoming an IPS officer, was named Best Film at the event.
Chunky took to his Instagram on Saturday, expressing his excitement about the encounter as "absolutely thrilling," and shared a picture capturing the memorable moment.
After the impressive wrestler and boxer-themed first and second-look posters starring Kartik, the makers stunned audiences with a third poster set against a compelling war backdrop.
