It was very thoughtful of the Filmfare management to give Shashi Kapoor this year's Lifetime Achievement Award, presented to him by Shabana Azmi during a typical Filmfare do hosted by among others Shah Rukh Khan and Saif Ali Khan. Shashi was in a wheelchair with his daughter Sanjana alongside him. After Ms Azmi's usual praise-showering speech, Shashi didn't respond by a long spiel. He just said, thank you.

The thing is that during Shashi's presence there, the musicians kept playing Yamma Yamma in the background, a song from his film, Shaan. They could've done better for Shaan is not Shashi K's representative film. But what can you expect of a ceremony where 3 Idiots grabs the vast majority of awards.
