The three distinct juries that debated and voted for the TV, Music and Fashion nominations had an intensive and challenging task to narrow down to five nominations per category.</p><p>The Film Jury refrained from suggesting any 2012 release for nomination this year.</p><p>The eight TV nominations were divided into satellite and terrestrial for the Best Serial, Best Actor/Actresses categories. The final winner for each of these categories is decided by Viewer’s Choice votes while Nominees for Best Director and Writer Awards will be decided via Jury Votes. Hum Tv’s mega blockbuster hit Humsafar has a presence in all relevant categories as it is now eligible for inclusion this year as against 2011 as per the rules of the LUX Style Awards. The competition in all TV categories is expected to be intense.</p><p>Competition for the nine Fashion Categories was tough and challenging. The Jury, made up of Fashion Editors and journalists across Pakistan voted for top five in each category. Fashion’s new vibrancy is gauged most by the entry of so many new practitioners in the Emerging Talent category. The other categories reflected the state of the industry with its blend of entrenched old guard still exciting with new ideas and the push up by vibrant new talent to edge them out and gain a foothold in the big design, styling and photography categories.</p><p>The LUX Style Awards for excellence in the field of Entertainment and Fashion in Pakistan are held annually and aired throughout the country on several national channels.</p><p><b> </b></p><h3><b>LUX STYLE AWARDS NOMINATIONS 2013</b></h3><h4>FILM NOMINATIONS</h4><p>No film nomination in any category for 2012</p><p>&nbsp;</p><h4>TELEVISION NOMINATIONS</h4><p><b>Best TV Play (Satellite)                                         </b></p><p>Humsafar on Hum TV (Producer Momina Duraid)</p><p>Maat on Hum TV (Producer Amna Nawaz Khan)</p><p>Manjali on Geo Entertainment (Producer Humayun Saeed &amp;

We have seen critics, showbiz personalities, anchors along with general public arguing to stop airing the foreign content on the Pakistani channels, and to promote <a
class="StrictlyAutoTagAnchor" title="View all articles about Pakistan here" href="http://www.pakium.com/tag/pakistan">Pakistan</a>&#8216;s own Showbiz indsutry.

Held to acknowledge and honour all those in the entertainment industry who have been a pillar of support to HUM in its eight-year long journey of success, the event was very well-received by all who attended.</p><p>Right from the word go the tempo was set with the red carpet area welcoming the guests and the glitterati and mouth-watering hors d’ ouvres being passed around.</p><p><img
class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-52910" alt="1st hum awards stage" src="http://www.pakium.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/03/1st-hum-awards.jpg" width="640" height="480" /></p><p>As guests entered the performance area to be seated they were spellbound by the awe-inspiring, massive, and beautifully decorated and lit stage. Hardly had they got over their surprise that the opening act was announced which featured the inimitable <strong>Abida Parveen</strong>.</p><p>Mekaal and Mahira then came in to host the first segment which was of Music Awards. After a visual presentation of HUM’s eight-year journey, nominees of Best Solo Artiste were announced by Asif Reza and Ayaan. The nominees were Abbas Ali Khan, Fakhir, Shehzad Roy, Falak and Hadiqa and the award went out to Shehzad Roy. Since he was out of the country Kami received the award on his behalf. Best Music Video nominees were Maram and Abro, Syed Ali Reza, Ehsan Rahim and Usman Mukhtar and the award went out to Syed Ali Reza. The Best OST Award presented by Alamgir and a sponsor went to Meray Qatil Meray Dildar. Other nominees were Roshan Sitara, Sanjha, Mata-e-Jaan Hai Tu, Nadamat and Maat.</p><p>Anwar Maqsood was the very apt choice to present the Lifetime Achievement Award which went out posthumously to Moin Akhter. Although his son was present to collect the award, he missed the announcement and the award was collected by Bushra Ansari, another very apt choice as she formed the third angle in the triangle that was Moin-Anwar-Bushra, bringing many a play to audiences.</p><p>The next performance to enthrall audiences was by Humayun Saeed and troupe who performed a premiere dance from his film Mein Hoon Shahid Afridi.</p><p>This was followed by Mekaal and Mahira announcing the next category of awards which were of Fashion. Nabila and Tapu announced the nominees for Best Designer Womenswear. The nominees were Asifa and Nabeel, Ali Xeehan, Fahad Hussain, Nomi Ansari and Nida Azwar and the award went to Nomi Ansari. Best Designer Menswear nominees were Arsalan, Emran Rajput, Nauman Arfeen, Zaheer Abbas and Deepak Perwani and the award was bagged by Deepak Perwani.  Best Model (female) nominees were announced by Nadya Husain and a sponsor and included Mehreen Sayed, Ayaan, Neha, Rabia Butt, Fouzia Aman, Nadia Ali and Amna Ilyas, while the award was bagged by Ayaan. Best Model (male) nominees were announced by Vaneeza and a sponsor. The nominees were Abdullah, Iffy, Mohammed, Athar Ameen and Abbas Jafri and the award went to Abbas Jafri.</p><p>Much to everyone’s delight LED Butterflies performed next with their light-studded outfits literally lighting up the stage, and marking the entry for the next award segment which was of Special Recognition Awards, hosted by Bushra Ansari.  Duraid Qureshi presented ten awards to the stalwarts of the television screen who have made an immense contribution to television since its inception in Pakistan. The recipients were Nayyer Kamal, Zaheen Tahira, Badar Khalil, Kazi Wajid, Qavi Khan, Talat Hussain, Munawer Saeed, Anwer Maqsood (received by Moin’s son), Shakeel and Abid Ali.</p><p>Mahira and Vasay Chaudhry hosted the next segment. They did a hilarious Truth or Dare with some of the celebrity guests present before announcing the next category of awards.  Awards for Best Actor in a Comic Role and Best Comedy Sitcom were presented by Ayesha Omer and Immu. The nominees in the first category were Barkat Siddiqui, Ismail Tara, Uroosa Siddiqui and Danish Nawaz           and the award went to Uroosa Siddiqui.
