Karnataka State Film Awards – winners


The winners for the Karnataka State Film Awards for the Kannada-language film industry in South India were announced yesterday for the years 2010 and 2011. The awards are given by the Government of Karnataka and chosen by a committee of eminent film industry professionals. This year's jury of 10 people was headed by actress Dr Bharathi Vishnuvardhan.

The big winner was Upendra's Super. It won Best Film and Best Director. The award for Second Best Film went to Bhagavathi Kaadu while Shabdamani was named third best film. Shabdamani picked up an additional award for Best Female Playback Artiste (dubbing). Top award winners receive a medal and a cash prize.

Sanju Weds Geetha picked up three awards. They were in the technical categories of Cinematography, Editing and Sound.

Curiously, Byaari came away empty-handed even though it shared Best Film at the 59th National Awards. Some felt that perhaps the top winners were those that were close to Dr Vishnuvardhana.

The Best Actor Award went to Puneeth Rajkumar for his role in Prithvi. Kalyani won Best Actress for her work in Suicide.

The jury viewed 52 films from February 13 to March 22 in choosing their winners.
