Indian actor Ali Fazal-starrer VICTORIA & ABDUL with Judi Dench in the key role, lost out on a chance to win an Oscar at the 90th Academy Awards here on Sunday.

The movie was nominated in two categories – Best Costume Design for Consolata Boyle and Make-up and Hairstyling for Daniel Phillips and Lou Sheppard.

The Best Costume Design award was bagged by Mark Bridges for black comedy PHANTOM, and in the movie Make-Up and Hairstyling segment, the team behind DARKEST HOUR -A Kazuhiro Tsuji, David Mallinowski and Lucy Sibbick – took away the accolades for the prosthetic work required to turn actor Gary Oldman into Winston Churchill.

The awards were presented by screen legend Eva Marie Saint, who won Best Actress in 1955 for ON THE WATERFRONT. She received a standing ovation when she took the stage.

Helmed by Stephen Frears, VICTORIA & ABDUL is based on a novel by Shrabani Basu. It revolves around the relationship shared by Queen Victoria and Abdul, who was a Munshi in her government. It also shows his journey on how he became one of the most powerful figures in the court.

The role of the queen is played by Dench and Abdul is essayed by Ali.

Ali had earlier spoken out about the hard work that went in for the movie.

"I remember sitting for hours in a day just for my fittings and markings. And how meticulously Consolata Boyle would tailor them to match the period we were depicting. It was like watching a painter unravel a masterpiece.

"The same goes for Daniel Phillips, a Golden Globe winner, who was responsible for all our looks," he had said earlier this year when the two nominations were announced.

Sridevi was her own competition and she had set goal for herself at every step in her life, said Jayaprada, who worked with her in many movies.

"When we worked together in films, we used to compete against each other. It was a healthy competition," recalled Jayaprada while paying rich tributes to Sridevi at a condolence meeting here on Sunday night.

Jayaprada recalled that they acted together in 15 Telugu and Hindi movies and whenever they had to appear in combination, there used to be competition, be it delivering a dialogue or giving an expression.

The former MP along with several personalities from Telugu film industry paid their tributes to Sridevi at a condolence meeting organised by film producer and politician T. Subbarami Reddy.

Sridevi died last week in Dubai due to accidental drowning at a hotel bathtub. Her mortal remains were cremated in Mumbai on Wednesday after several fans and film fraternity paid their last respects. She was 54.

In a career that lasted 50 years, Sridevi acted in 300 films in various languages including Tamil, Telugu, Kannada, Malayalam and Hindi. Some of her iconic films include SADMA, NAGINA, MR. INDIA, KHUDA GAWAH, JAGADEKA VEERUDU ATHILOKA SUNDARI, KSHANA KSHANAM and GOVINDA GOVINDA.

Jayaprada said she still could not believe that Sridevi is no longer amidst them. "When I woke up to watch the television, it was a big shock not just for the film industry and her fans but for all the people," she said.

Recalling her association with the late actress, Jayaprada said she believes that it was her good fortune that she got an opportunity to work with Sridevi. She said the loss was irreparable.

Jayaprada said Sridevi was a caring mother. "She wanted to see her daughter Jhanvi becoming a good actor like her. She, however, left us before watching her daughter making the debut."

Veteran actor Krishnam Raju recalled that he acted with Sridevi in 4 to 5 films. "She always used to call me sir. She had lot of respect for her seniors. She did not use to even sit in front of elders," he said.

Subbarami Reddy, who co-produced two movies CHANDNI and LAMHE featuring Sridevi, recalled his long association with Sridevi. He was even planning a function to mark Sridevi's 50 years in films.

The MP said Sridevi was not just a great actor but was also a good human being, a loving wife and caring mother.

Actors Naresh, Jeevitha, Rajasekhar, Amla Akkineni, Kota Srinivas rao, Jagapati Babu, Babu Mohan, Ali, Movie Artist Association (MAA) President Sivaji Raja, producer Allu Arvind, writer Parchuri Gopala Krishna and others paid their tributes to Sridevi.

Veteran actor Babu Mohan, who could not make it to meeting, sent his condolence message.

Indian cinema icon Shashi Kapoor and India's first female superstar Sridevi were honoured at the 90th Academy Awards ceremony here during the "In Memoriam" montage.

The Indian stars got a musical tribute by Eddie Vedder who took the stage to sing Tom Petty's "Room at the top".

Actress Jennifer Garner introduced the segment by paying tribute to late star Audrey Hepburn.

"There is no joy without sorrow," Garner said, and then acknowledged the loss of film world with the departed souls.

Son of Prithviraj Kapoor and younger brother of Raj Kapoor and Shammi Kapoor, Shashi Kapoor made his debut in Bollywood with the 1961 film DHARMPUTRA after working as a child artist. He passed away in December 2017.

Bollywood's ultimate "charm house" Shashi Kapoor then went on to make a name for himself globally by associating with international cinema. He was honoured with the Padma Bhushan — the third highest civilian honour — by the Indian government in 2011.

In 2015, he was bestowed with the Dadasaheb Phalke Award.

Sridevi, known for her ability to slip into myriad roles, expressive eyes, sheer comic timing and her fluid dancing skills, died on February 24. Her death left everyone shocked, and saddened.

They were included in the annual montage along with stars such as John Heard, Tony Anne Walker, Jane Foray, Robert Osborne, Martin Landau, Glenne Headly, Roger Moore, George A. Romero and Jerry Lewis.

With Jimmy Kimmel as a host, the ceremony was held at the Dolby Theatre here on Sunday night.

KASHISH Mumbai International Queer Film Festival has chosen the look for the ninth edition of South Asia's biggest LGBTQ film fest scheduled to be held from May 23-27, 2018.

India's top fashion designer Wendell Rodricks – judge for the KASHISH International Poster Contest – declared Mumbai's based graphic designer Ashutosh Vyas as the winner. Vyas, will receive a trophy and a cash prize of Rs 25,000 instituted by Rodricks.

''This award winning poster is both graphic and bold without resorting to the literal in a detailed visual format. In a minimal, forceful and colourful message, the theme of ‘Together with Pride’ is achieved. In its simplicity and starkness with the layering, complexity, diversity and solidarity of the LGBTQ community, the poster conveys instantly what KASHISH 2018 is about. I congratulate the winner and wish KASHISH 2018 the success it so richly deserves,'' said Rodricks.

The poster depicts six silhouettes with pride colors and portrays people uniting and forming a society of togetherness and love

Vyas said that he was extremely happy and delighted to have won the prestigious competition ''It feels amazing to win, especially in something you believe in. I believe in equal opportunities for all and stand by the idea that all have right to live the way they want to. KASHISH, through this competition helped me express that. This film festival not only brings in an excellent experience with regards to its films, but also gives opportunities to art in different forms. It means a lot to be associated with it,'' said Vyas.

The entries this year came from around the world. "This year the festival received a very diverse range of creative submissions. The winner chosen by Wendell Rodricks is a beautifully stark design that emphatically underlines the theme of the festival – 'only if we are together with pride can we achieve equality and dignity for everyone'. Congratulations to Ashutosh, who is incidentally the third time Mumbaikar winning the contest,'' said festival director Sridhar Rangayan.

The winning design will be used on hoardings, banners, cinema slides, delegate cards, T-shirts and catalog cover.
