Mera Saaen went ahead with five nominations in various categories.

Pakistan’s only entertainment awards show the 11th Lux Style Awards released their nominations  in 26 different categories in the field of television, film, music and fashion.

The nominations reflect the three entertainment industries of the country; fashion leading with nine nominations with big wigs such as Khaadi, Sana Safinaaz, Kamiar Rokni, Mehreen Syed, Maram Azmat etc and new-comers such as Nadir Firoz, Raana Khan, Sania Maskatiya, Abbas Jafri with their wonderful portfolio.

Television made up to eight nominations with Noman Ijaz being nominated for both terrestrial and satellite dramas and Fahad Musafa nominated twice for satellite dramas. Mera Saaen went ahead with five nominations in various categories.

Five nominations from the music industry were sent in with Best Original Soundtrack being the most interesting category and the Best Emerging Talent also looking quite promising.

Sadly only one nomination from the film industry made it, and that thanks Shoaib Mansoor’s Bol, which is the only nomination with three different categories.
