MUMBAI – Screen legend Amitabh Bachchan has won the best actor title in Bollywood's top awards, but he boycotted the ceremony because of a row with a tabloid newspaper.
The 66-year-old star won for his portrayal of a child with the rapid-ageing condition progeria in "Paa" (Father), which also featured his real-life son, Abhishek. Both Bachchans stayed away from Saturday night's ceremony, the 55th edition of the Filmfare awards, which are the Oscars of India's Hindi-language film industry.
