Filmfare Award for Best Performance in a Comic Role

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Filmfare Best Comedian Award was given by Filmfare as part of its annual Filmfare Awards for Hindi films, to recognise an actor who had delivered an outstanding performance in a comic role.

Although the awards started in 1954, awards for the best comedian category started only in 1967, and has been marked as obsolete since 2007.
