Alia Bhatt won the Filmfare Best Actor Award (Female) for her performance as a Bihari immigrant in Udta Punjab. Udta Punjab, which also stars Alia, Kareena Kapoor Khan and Diljit, is a story that revolves around drug abuse in north of Punjab and how the youths there have succumbed to it. Shahid essayed the character of a high-on-drugs, long-haired rockstar Tommy Singh, who sings with glee and abuses with impunity.
