Salim Kumar was the best choice for the Best Actor award, not Mohanlal.

Nice work the perfect list anyways the most…. wat shud i say deserving awards were the best actor and film award it was really a very good film. Also how a comic role doing Salim kumar did the role of serious dad in Achanurangatha Veedu was awesome

I second Sreejith’s comments.. Mohan Lal is an established actor and a person who has done a lot of movies and has given a vareity of characters. So when comparing the role of Mohan Lal in Tanmatra to his earlier roles, this is not his best. But Salimkumar, who is an artist who does more comedian roles and has always been a part of the band of comedians in Dilip’s movies, to do a serious role like that and being realistic enough deserves the Best actor award. The state must look out to encourage realistic actors like Salim than sing hosannas to Mammooty and Mohan lal..

Looks like this is replay of Kalabhavan Mani Vs. Mohanlal award controversy which happened few years back - Did Salim Kumar faint?

Sorry, I don’t get it. Just because a comic actor has played a serious role, he should get an award? Shouldn’t the question be around the performances, rather than the background of the actors?

manoj k jayan deserved the best actor award or the second best actor award…just because a comedian like Salim Kumar does a serious role it does not mean that you have to give award to him!
