Best of Bollywood in 2011 - My list of awards

Well, 2011 was an outstanding year for Bollywood with a variety of films hitting the silver screen. While most of them were good, some were downright boring and made me wonder if the producer was threatened to finance it. Most notably - Mausam, Rasacals and Double Dhamaal. I am sure, those who have seen these will agree with me.

So, the first major Bollywood award happens tonight. Its the Colours Screen Awards (was called Star Screen Awards earlier). So before the first set of awards are announced, I'd share my opinion on the best movies and performances of 2011.

This is the (non-exhaustive) list of films released in 2011. So lets start right away:
