Filmfare Awards 2020 Predictions: Gully Boy, Uri, Kabir Singh or War – Forecasting the Big Winners of the Night

The Filmfare Awards 2020 is being held in Assam for the very first time, changing its usual venue from Mumbai, on February 15. The reason is not sure, but certain sources in the industry claim that it is done as per the behest of the government to boost the tourism in Assam, after the whole CAA-NRC fracas. Whatever the case is, we can say the change in venue could be good for the function, though, unlike the Oscars, we are not going to get to watch it live. Filmfare Awards 2020: Ranveer Singh Gives a Glimpse from the Rehearsals, and It Looks FAB!
