Here are the winners of the 62nd Filmfare Awards

Many eyes in Pakistan were glued to the Filmfare Awards' social media feed last night, and not only because it's the biggest film awards in Bollywood.

Four Pakistanis artists — Fawad Khan, Rahat Fateh Ali Khan, Qurat ul Ain Balouch and Atif Aslam —made it to the Filmfare nominations in a year where Pakistani talent working in India became a very contentious issue.

But our surprise ended there. None of the nominated Pakistanis won the coveted award last night.

Fawad Khan missed the chance to win his second Filmfare award for Kapoor & Sons, losing out to his co-star Rishi Kapoor in the Best Actor In A Supporting Role category.

Rahat Fateh Ali Khan, who was nominated in the Best Playback Singer (Male) category for 'Jag Ghoomeya' (Sultan), also couldn't become a two-time Filmfare winner. Atif Aslam, who has been nominated several times before in the same category, failed to nab it this time around too for 'Tere Sang Yara' (Rustom). Both lost out to 'Ae Dil Hai Mushkil' singer Arijit Singh.

Qurat ul Ain Balouch lost out to Neha Bhasin, who sang 'Jag Ghoomeya' in Sultan, in the Best Playback Singer (Female) category.
