ASIAN FILM AWARD WINNERS - THE GRANDMASTER HAS MASTERFUL VICTORY


Who'd have thought it? Pretty much everyone, I'd say, as Wong Kar Wai's most financially successful film to date in his career won seven Asian Film Awards yesterday (the 27th of March). Major prizes handed out to the film included Best Picture, Best Director for Wong and Best Actress for Zhang Ziyi, while the two categories in which it was also nominated for Oscars (Best Cinematography and Best Costume Design) also reaped awards for the historical martial arts film. Irrfan Khan won Best Actor for The Lunchbox, the highly popular film which was rejected by India's selection committee to be represented at the Oscars last year.
