Bollywood has given some interesting releases in 2010 and the list includes variety of films starting from comedy, romantic, action-thriller, masala to satire. The industry has lots of glamour and new trends to offer the Awards event this year.

The small budget films have been great offering of the year. The unusual story-lines of such films also attracted the viewers. The Screen Selection Academy has finally announced the nomination list for this year. The event will take place on January 6 at the MMRDA Grounds in Bandra-Kurla Complex in Mumbai.
