Only a day after being nominated for Best Story at Filmfare Awards, writer Jyoti Kapoor was in for a rude shock. While she was credited along with Shantanu Srivastava and Akshat Ghildial for writing the Ayushmann Khurrana starrer Badhaai Ho, her name was unceremoniously dropped from the list of nominees yesterday.

Speaking to mid-day, Kapoor says she is unable to understand what prompted the award organisers to drop her name, while Srivastava and Ghildial remained on the list: "My name was included in the nominees' list on Wednesday morning, until it magically disappeared. I wrote to [the producers] Priti Shahani [president, Junglee Pictures], and Vineet Jain [MD, Times Group] requesting them to reinstate my name. But clearly, nothing has been done about it."
