After a
successful year for Indian cinema, ie 2009, with stellar performances at the box office,
the International Indian Film Academy (IIFA) has announced the nominations
for the IIFA Awards 2010.
There was much ado about the venue for this award ceremony - wherein
Ireland had been a strong contender to begin with, while Korea had
bagged the honor transiently, but Sri Lanka it was that got the final
nod from authorities, earlier in March.
The 11th celebrations of the Videocon
IIFA Weekend and Micromax IIFA Awards will be held in the Sri Lankan capital, Colombo from June 3rd 5th, 2010.

Meanwhile, the technical awards' winners have been declared, with 3 Idiots sweeping as many as 8 awards all for themselves, including Best Screenplay, Best Background Score, Best Dialog, Best Editing and Best Cinematography. Saif's Love Aaj Kal and Sujoy Ghosh's Aladin got 2 each. The winning contenders will receive their due honors at the ceremony itself.
