They rolled out the red carpet and welcomed their guests and stars to the 2003
ZEE CINE AWARDS, held at the prestigious Tulip Star Hotel, Juhu. Performances by
Aishwarya Rai, Shamita Shetty and Esha Deol delighted the audiences, whilst
Arbaaz Khan and wife, Maliaka Arora-Khan hosted the show. The jury consisted of
many yesteryear names including Feroz Khan and Rakhee, and also our very own
Komal Nahta!
That Devdas swept the awards was only anticipated, winning in Best Actor,
Best Actress and Best Director categories but to name a few. However, the
surprise, or rather shock of the evening was Madhuri Dixit losing out on Best
Supporting Actress for her portrayal of Chandramukhi in Devdas. Instead Sushmita
Sen walked away with the award for her role in Filhaal. This has caused quite a
bit of a stir with a number of web polls resulting in an almost unanimous public
support for Madhuri winning the award. However, it's the jury that decides and
speculation of Rakhee gunning for her daughter's film Filhaal winning some
awards will certainly raise a few eyebrows.
Zee Cine Awards 2003 will certainly make the history books for joint
awarding Best Female Playback Singers to Kavita Subramaniam and Shreya Gosai for
their efforts in Dola Re Dola from Devdas. Also Nadeem-Shravan (Raaz) and A.R.
Rehman (Saathiya) were joint winners for Best Music, which was unsuspecting from
a hopeful Ismail Darbar for his musical score, Devdas.
Despite Devdas winning ample awards, The Legend Of Bhagat Singh and
Saathiya picked up a generous amount of trophies too.
