The Concept : Power Brands Bollywood Film Journalists Awards aim to be India’s first no frills, absolutely transparent Bollywood Awards where selection is based upon voting only by film journalists. The exact votes of each journalist is displayed below.

22 leading journalists, critic and editors participated in this unique first of its kind in India open ballot selection process.

The Categories are:
  1. Best Feature Film 2. Best Director 3. Best Actor Male
  4. Best Actor Female 5. Best Supporting Actor Male 6. Best Supporting Actor Female
  7. Best Music Director 8. Best Background Score 9. Best Cinematography

  16. Best Editing 17. Best Sound Effects 18. Best Make Up and Hair
  19. Best Visual Effects 20. Best Animated Feature Film 21. Best Animated Short Film
  22. Best Short Film 23. Best Documentary 24. Best Debutante Male
  25. Best Debutante Female 26. Best Choreographer 27. Best Lyrics
  28. Best Child Artist 29. Best Screenplay 30. Best Dailogues
  31. Best Action    

There were no nominations. Film critics were free to decide their choice what makes this award more unique is the fact that this is the first award in Bollywood where the winners and runners up both will be awarded. The concept is very clear. When the awards are not being given on the basis of who performs in the show or who comes to take the awards and instead given on the basis of a genuine open ballot jury, irrespective of who comes to collect the awards, they generate a huge credibility. Movie making is a very lengthy process, which requires months of hard work if not years. When the awards are genuine then missing out on the award by a whisker makes you as much of a winner.

We are happy to share the result of the 2018 edition of Power Brands - BFJA and its honoured Jury Members.
