52nd Kerala State Film Awards Winners List: Biju Menon, Joju George Share Best Actor Award

Jury head, Saeed Akhtar Mirza said that it was tough selecting the greatest actor, according to Asianet news. According to Mirza, Menon바카라™s acting was very subtle and George바카라™s acting in 바카라˜Nayattu바카라™ was exuberant and vulnerable. 

George also received a special jury mention for his role in 바카라˜Joseph바카라™ at the National Film Awards in 2019. Menon is a two time winner of the Kerala State Film Award for second best actor. As for 2022, 142 films entered in different categories for the awards.
