== Awards == The [[Filmfare Awards]] are some of the most prominent awards given to Hindi films in India.<ref>{{cite news |url=https://movies.indiatimes.com/articleshow/msid-1367349,prtpage-1.cms |title=Filmfare Awards gets new sponsor |work=The Times of India |access-date=12 November 2010 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20090220033512/https://movies.indiatimes.com/articleshow/msid-1367349%2Cprtpage-1.cms |archive-date=20 February 2009}}</ref> The Indian screen magazine ''[[Filmfare]]'' began the awards in 1954 (recognising the best films of 1953), and they were originally known as the Clare Awards after the magazine's editor. Modeled on the [[Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences]]' poll-based merit format, individuals may vote in separate categories. A dual voting system was developed in 1956.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.dnnworld.com/filmfare.php |title=Diaspora News & Network Ltd |publisher=Dnnworld.com |date=4 March 2005 |access-date=12 November 2010}}</ref> The [[National Film Awards]] were also introduced in 1954. The Indian government has sponsored the awards, given by its [[Directorate of Film Festivals]] (DFF), since 1973. The DFF screens Bollywood films, films from the other regional movie industries, and independent/art films. The awards are made at an annual ceremony presided over by the president of India. Unlike the Filmfare Awards, which are chosen by the public and a committee of experts, the National Film Awards are decided by a government panel.<ref>[https://www.bollywoodsoundtracks.com/html/filmfareawards.htm Filmfare Awards Complete Winners List β BollywoodSoundtracks.com<!-- Bot generated title -->] {{webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20070703214358/https://www.bollywoodsoundtracks.com/html/filmfareawards.htm |date=3 July 2007 }}</ref> Other awards ceremonies for Hindi films in India are the [[Screen Awards]] (begun in 1995) and the [[Stardust Awards]], which began in 2003. The [[International Indian Film Academy Awards]] (begun in 2000) and the [[Zee Cine Awards]], begun in 1998, are held abroad in a different country each year.
