  1. ^ Certain award groups do not simply award one winner. They recognize several different recipients, have runners-up, and have third place. Since this is a specific recognition and is different from losing an award, runner-up mentions are considered wins in this award tally. For simplification and to avoid errors, each award in this list has been presumed to have had a prior nomination.

Chennai Express is a 2013 Indian Hindi-language action comedy film directed by Rohit Shetty and produced by UTV Motion Pictures and Red Chillies Entertainment. It stars Deepika Padukone and Shah Rukh Khan with Nikitin Dheer, Sathyaraj, Kamini Kaushal and Lekh Tandon in supporting roles. The film revolves around Rahul Mithaiwala, a rich man who accidentally boards the eponymous train and journeys from Mumbai to Rameswaram with the daughter of an influential don.[1]

The soundtrack for the film was composed by Vishal–Shekhar, with the background score being composed by Amar Mohile. UTV Motion Pictures came on board as producer and distributor, marking its first active project with Khan after Swades (2004). Chennai Express was released to positive reviews from critics and it broke several box office records in India and abroad, becoming the quickest film to collect 1 billion (US$17.07 million) net domestically.[2]

At the 59th Filmfare Awards, Chennai Express received 7 nominations, including Best Director (Shetty), Best Actor (Khan) and Best Actress (Padukone).[3] At the 15th IIFA Awards, it received 6 nominations and won 3 awards including Best Actress (Padukone).[4]
