New Delhi: The awards season is upon us and this is the time when the best of Indian cinema is judged, reviewed rewarded for entertaining us in the past year. 2013 has seen a mixed bag of films comprising both popular and art house cinema. In our maiden initiative, we have selected nominees in various popular categories and will let our readers decide the outcome. It is a month long poll, so go ahead and vote for your favourite performers of 2013.
Heavy dialogues and romance have always been the basic ingredients of a good script but a film is never complete until there is some humour to tickle the funny bones. 2013 had some of the most rib tickling performances by actors that left many of us in splits and at other times, a smile never left us even after leaving the theatre hours ago.
Here are the nominees for actor in a comic role:
Varun Sharma (Fukrey): Very few actors fit into the character so well that people remember them just as the characters and Choocha aka Varun Sharma is one of them. The ease with which he plays the character is highly commendable and he fits like a hand in glove in the film. The eagerness and zeal with which Varun Sharma got familiar with the college life and adapted the character of a school dropout was commendable. His infectious smile and that spark makes us believe that he is not yet done making people laugh. There's more to come.
Nawazuddin Siddiqui (The Lunchbox): We have seen him play a gangster in 'Gangs of Wasseypur' and a ghost in 'Aatma' but little did we know that Nawazuddin can also tickle the funny bones. The actor plays a cheerful and optimistic young officer who is a keen learner and manages to please the otherwise reluctant Saajan (Irrfan Khan). From chopping vegetables in the local to everyday sharing Saajan's 'dabba', Nawazuddin manages to bring a smile on the face. The actor deserves a mention as it is a sheer delight to see him in the new avatar.
Divyendu Sharma for (Chashme Baddoor): Divyendu steps into the shoes of Rakesh Bedi in the remake of the film but the actor brings his own comic timing. He has displayed some great humour in 'Pyaar Ka Punchnama' and his funny shayari in 'Chashme Baddoor' has you in splits.
Kunal Khemu (Go Goa Gone): He might not have struck gold with his past films but the actor did make many heads turn with his comic act in 'Go Goa Gone'. His perfect comic timing and his camaraderie with Vir Das and Anand Tiwari makes his act quite charming.
Prabal Panjabi (Mere Dad Ki Maruti): Ram Kapoor and Saqib Salim's comic timing was enough to make 'Mere Dad Ki Maruti' a laugh riot, but actor Prabal Panjabi just fits as the last piece of the rib tickling jigsaw perfectly. He plays Saqib Saleem's chaddi buddy who doesn't mind being called his chauffer or help him arrange a stolen car.####
