The jury of the 62nd National Film Awards on Tuesday announced a balanced list of winners from the Hindi and regional movie worlds, with Vishal Bhardwaj's "Haider" taking away a bouquet of five awards. Talents from Tamil and Bengali movies have been rightfully lauded too.
Haider - a modern-day adaptation of William Shakespeare's classic tragedy "Hamlet" - set in the backdrop of Kashmir, won Best Male Playback Singer for Sukhwinder Singh for the song Bismil; Best Dialogues and Music Direction for the film's director Vishal Bhardwaj; Best Choreography for Norway-based Sudesh Adhana; and Best Costume Designer for the effervescent Dolly Ahluwalia.
