The state Film awards for the year 2014 has announced yesterday and with that brought a lot of controversies and topics for debates and discussions in the social Media circles as well as in popular print and visual media. The main focus was on the best actor and best actress awards given to Nivin Pauly and Nazriya Nazim. Best actor award was shared by two actors. One is ofcourse Nivin Pauly and the other is Sudev Nair who is a newcomer who said to have given a sterling performance in Padma Kumar directorial film My Life Partner. Best actress award for Nazriya Nazim considering her performances in the flicks named Om Shanti Oshana and Bangalore Days conceived by debutant film maker Jude Antony Joseph and Female director Anjali Menon respectively.
But many is of the opinion that the award given to Nazriya Nazim was really a bad decision by jury and Nazriya does not deserve the award and she did not gave a performance which is good enough to win a state award for best actress. In Nivin’s case to many people have the same opinion as many believes that the performance of Jayasurya is far far superior than anyone’s performance last year. People supported Manju Warrier to win the best actor award for her performance in the flick by Roshen Andrews titled How Old Are You.
Now Manju Warrier herself came out through her Facebook profile saying that Nazriya Nazim had deserved this best actress award and Manju said that she really loved the performance of Nazriya in both the films which helped her to win the best actress award. Manu Warrier also said that Nivin Pauly has the talent to become a good actor right from the start of his career and she had noticed it when saw him in different films. She said that these awards are not just recognitions but also milestones in a long career in this field.
