Ranbir Kapoor, Ranveer Singh, Shah Rukh Khan, Sunny Deol, and Vicky Kaushal make the 'Best Actor' list.

Massey's absence sparks debates, with fans questioning why his remarkable portrayal in '12th Fail' was overlooked.

Fans point out the dual mention of Vicky Kaushal, suggesting Massey could have been included in both categories.

[{"selector":"#anim-c05abb76-daae-4708-9b01-8fe3724189f9","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(-101.97531%, 0px, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.4, 0.4, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-ab746c4c-f2ea-4940-b3a6-9ca650affdd1","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.4, 0.4, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-29119508-c56d-4493-9984-cfe30b189de1","keyframes":{"transform":["scale(0.15)","scale(1)"]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.4, 0.4, 0.0, 1)","fill":"forwards"}] [{"selector":"#anim-58fdcf70-52be-4c03-93b9-b3dc28707775 [data-leaf-element=\"true\"]","keyframes":{"transform":["translate(0%, 0%) scale(1.5)","translate(0%, 0%) scale(1)"]},"delay":0,"duration":2000,"easing":"cubic-bezier(.3,0,.55,1)","fill":"forwards"}] Image: VVC Films

Despite '12th Fail' competing for 'Best Film,' Massey's exclusion in the 'Best Actor' category raises eyebrows.

[{"selector":"#anim-48091abb-73d0-40d7-96e0-cffc9fe3fa51","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(-103.20988%, 0px, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.4, 0.4, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-36928cbc-b8bf-4169-a717-1326678107c3","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.4, 0.4, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-526d457f-fab6-4262-bd6d-e0529c2e5029","keyframes":{"transform":["scale(0.15)","scale(1)"]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.4, 0.4, 0.0, 1)","fill":"forwards"}] [{"selector":"#anim-0a48989b-6557-43de-97b0-b3a9a69848e1 [data-leaf-element=\"true\"]","keyframes":{"transform":["translate(0%, 0%) scale(1.5)","translate(0%, 0%) scale(1)"]},"delay":0,"duration":2000,"easing":"cubic-bezier(.3,0,.55,1)","fill":"forwards"}] Image: VVC Films

Hrithik Roshan's praise for '12th Fail' without mentioning Massey directly receives criticism from netizens.

Filmfare's nomination process, primarily audience-based, faces scrutiny for overlooking Massey's heartwarming performance.
