Initially, only Tamil and Telugu films were considered for the Filmfare Awards, but Malayalam and Kannada films became part of the event in 1966 and 1969, respectively.

The 61st Idea Filmfare Awards 2013 (South) is to be held at the Jawahar Lal Nehru Indoor Stadium in Chennai on July 12, 2014.

Dhanush said earlier at the press conferance , “Filmfare Award is really special. The award ceremony that is held every year is now a part of our culture. It is every actor’s dream to win a Filmfare Award, and it was my dream too. I came to this industry in 2002 and was waiting to win the Black Lady’s heart for several years. It never happened. I had to break the ice and flirt with the Black Lady and finally, Aadukalam happened in 2008 and I won my first Filmfare Award for it.”
