Filmfare Awards 2015 Nominations: 'Haider' and '2 States' Lead; Complete List of Nominees

The nominees of one of the most awaited award ceremonies in India, Filmfare Awards, were revealed on Tuesday. The awards association revealed the list of nominees in 10 different categories, including Best Film, Best Director and Best Actors.

Last year, the award ceremony received flak for not including critically acclaimed films like "Lootera" and "The Lunchbox" in the Best Film category.

However, this year they have included critically acclaimed films "Haider", "Mary Kom" and "Queen" among others in the Best Film category.

"Haider" and "2 States" leads the list with six nominations, while "Queen" fetched five nominations. Aamir Khan's "PK" and Alia Bhatt's "Highway" have three nominations each. 

Priyanka Chopra's "Mary Kom" and Rani Mukherji's "Mardaani" too have received two nominations each. 

The 60th edition of Filmfare Awards will take place on 31 January at Yash Raj Studios in Mumbai. The award ceremony will be aired on Sony Television and Karan Johar, Alia Bhatt and Kapil Sharma will host the show, according to the official website of Sony Television.
