Lo and behold! Here are the ones who bagged the Star Screen Awards 2016

The awards season has started with the first award function of the year, Star Screen Awards 2016. The award function took place at MMRDA. While every year it is said that the awards are rigged, we feel this year it has been given to the people who deserved it. However, we were a bit disappointed that Akshay Kumar did not receive an award for his fantastic performance in ‘Rustom’. But then, you can’t have all.
