Darling's 'Baahubali - The Beginning' in the direction of SS Rajamouli has bagged seven coveted awards and topped the Tamil Winners list of IIFA Utsavam 2016 awards. The Movie was adjudged the 'Best Tamil Film' of the year. S.S.Rajamouli won the 'Best Director' Award and Sathyaraj and Ramya Krishnan won the awards for 'Best Supporting Actor' and 'Best Supporting Actress' respectively. Haricharan and Geeta Madhuri won both the awards for 'Best Playback Singer' and Sabu Cyril won the award for Best Production Design.
Baahubali being a bilingual in Telugu & Tamil was able to win the coveted awards for Tamil Films. However, since the Malayalam version was only a dubbed movie, the movie couldn't contest in the Malayalam film categories. More awards for Baahubali are expected as the Telugu film Awrds will be announced today.
