IIFA Awards 2020 - Popular Award Winners

The IIFA Awards make for a stellar evening every year when the stars that grace our screens give us incredible performances on stage and are recognised for their hard work. Unfortunately, the 2020 IIFA Awards was an unavoidable exception due to the global pandemic and we missed seeing our stars on the red carpet. However, the one factor that remained consistent was honouring them for their exceptional work. 


Let’s see which of our favourite stars took the coveted IIFA Award home and which films took the jury’s hearts away. 


  1. The Kabir Singh team took home four awards. These were for Best Picture received by the makers Bhushan Kumar, Krishan Kumar, Murad Khetani, Ashwin Varde, Performance In A Leading Role (Male) to Shahid Kapoor, Music Direction to Akhil Sachdeva, Vishal Mishra, Sachet - Parampara, Amaal Mallik, Mithoon, and Playback Singer (Female) to Shreya Ghoshal.




  1. Gully Boy was second in line with three awards for Performance In A Leading Role (Female) to Alia Bhatt, Performance In A Supporting Role (Male) to Siddhant Chaturvedi and, Best Story to Reema Kagti and Zoya Akhtar. 



  1. Uri’s director Aditya Dhar won the award for best direction for making the film a masterpiece. 


  1. Kiara Advani won the award for Performance In A Supporting Role (Female) for Good Newwz.
