After questions were raised on the credibility of the awards event and censor board chief Pahlaj Nihalani called it an 'international farce', the IIFA organisers issued a statement. "So basically, in IIFA, forms are sent to various production houses. They fill those forms up and send it back to us. Those forms are then put out to the industry for voting and from there it becomes a nomination.
The statement further said, "So, Dangal has not sent their entry in. We would love Dangal to be a part of it. I think it's a movie that's broken all records. We love Aamir Khan and the two little girls. They did a great job. But unfortunately, they didn't send their entry in. We feel sad, said Andre Timmins, Director - Wizcraft International.
Dangal performed excellently at the box office and created new records for Indian cinema in China. Aamir, who features in the lead, is known to avoid Bollywood award functions. The film, directed by Nitesh Tiwari is a biopic sports-drama about Mahavir Phogat and his two daughters - Geeta Phogat (Fatima Sana Shaikh), Babita Kumari (Sanya Malhotra).
