LUX Style Awards announces nominations in 26 categories

KARACHI: Nominations for the 11th LUX Style Awards were

announced in Karachi this week. The Awards office of Pakistan’s most
credible and coveted Awards released nominations in 26 categories in
the genres of Film, Music, Television and Fashion.

The LSA Film Jury voted for Bol across all three categories. Shoaib
Mansoor’s Bol was the sole film that made the grade and qualified
as a bonafide entrant for an Award that is given out for excellence in
cinema.

With the Pakistan music scene limping back from the fallow years, the
competition for nomination slots was once again hotly debated. As
a concrete nod to experimentation and creating new boundaries for
musical excellence a category was added to accommodate emerging
talent in music.

Television was as usual the most vibrant of all the genres with PTV,
Hum TV and Geo Entertainment sharing most of the nomination slots
for serials and related categories.

Public voting for TV and Music categories to decide the winner for the
11th LUX Style Awards will commence later this month. Fashion Jury
members will be voting for the ten Fashion Categories.

The LUX Style Awards for Excellence in Cinema, TV, Music and Fashion
will be held midsummer and aired at a later date on national TV.
