Sajid Wajid won the best composer award for their performance in the film Dabaang. Sandeep Shirodkar won the award for the best background score for the film Dabaang. The only peculiarity about the popular choice award lies in the selection of the item number song for the award. In fact the melodious song “tu ne to pal bhar me chori kiya re jiya” sung by Sonu Nigam and Shreya Ghoshal was more romantic than the item number of song. Both Sonu Nigam and Shreya Ghoshal sang the song with romantic appeal.

Legendary composer Ravi Shankar Sharma won the lifetime achievement award for his immense contribution to bollywood cinema.
