This happens to be the Filmfare Power List for year 2006. Aamir Khan delivered two of the biggest hits in 'Rang De Basanti' and 'Fanaa'. He has also been adjudged as one of the three top actors (other two being Shahrukh Khan and Hrithik Roshan) who genuinely excite Box Office by his mere presence. And he happened to be at the fourth position in 2005 when he had delivered a turkey in 'Mangal Pandey'. So, is there more to Aamir's name not being in the fray this time'.
Yes. Surely. Earlier the Film Awards in Bollywood were labeled as 'biased' and 'rigged'. Now, even all these power lists are fast losing credibility too. The reason for Aamir's exclusion is obvious. For, he had allegedly sued Filmfare last year to the tune of Rs 19 crore for using his photograph for promoting the Filmfare Awards (he had been nominated in the best actor category for 'Mangal Pandey').
Apparently a 'reliable' survey team took opinions of 200 top technicians and filmmakers before coming to the final picture. But it's quite clear, Aamir's exclusion has a design to it than mere 'true polling figures'. So, what's your opinion'.Can a Power List of Bollywood be complete without Aamir Khan? Do let us know your thoughts'
