Awards snub for Lootera leaves Sonakshi furious

Here's what your favourite Bollywood celebrities are tweeting.

The awards season is here and Vikramaditya Motwane's critically-acclaimed film Lootera seems to be missing from the major categories.

Its lead star Sonakshi Sinha, who received much praise for her performance in the film, turned to Twitter to expresses her disappointment over the snub.

‘Disheartening how Lootera has been held back from most of the nominations this year! Dint they call it a masterpiece/poetry in motion/world class/technically superior film when it released? That seems like qualification enough to be out there,’ the 26-year-old actress tweeted.

‘Not nominating Vikram Motwane for best director, Ranveer for acting, Amit Trivedi for music, Shetty for cinematography, Aditya for art, Subarna for costume, Amitabh for lyrics makes my nomination feel so out of place!’ she added.

‘Vikram motwane, u will and always be best director for me! Ranveer, Amit Trivedi, Shetty, Aditya, Subarna, Amitabh Bhattacharya and everyone associated with this very special film will always be proud of Lootera whether or not they acknowledge us :)’ she continued.
