35th Filmfare Awards

The 35th Filmfare Awards were held in 1990.

Maine Pyaar Kiya led the ceremony with 12 nominations, followed by Chandni with 10 nominations, Ram Lakhan with 9 nominations, and Parinda and Tridev with 6 nominations each.

Sooraj Barjatya's Maine Pyaar Kiya won 6 awards, including Best Film, thus becoming the most-awarded film at the ceremony.

Vidhu Vinod Chopra's Parinda was the other big winner on the night with 5 awards, including Best Director (for Vidhu Vinod Chopra), Best Actor (for Jackie Shroff) and Best Supporting Actor (for Nana Patekar).

This rivalry between Sooraj Barjatya and Vidhu Vinod Chopra resurfaced at the 40th Filmfare Awards, where once again Barjatya's Hum Aapke Hain Koun..! beat out Chopra's 1942: A Love Story for Best Film.

Sridevi received dual nominations for Best Actress for her performances in Chaalbaaz and Chandni, winning for the former.
