Hyderabad: The 78th British Academy Film Awards (BAFTA) 2025 winners were announced on Sunday (Monday early morning in India) in London's Royal Festival Hall. The star-studded event witnessed Conclave and The Brutalist clinch the highest number of awards. However, India's hopes were shattered with Payal Kapadia's All We Imagine as Light losing to Emilia Perez in the Best Film Not in the English Language category. Moreover, Kylie Jenner and Timothee Chalamet stole the spotlight with their PDA.
Vatican drama Conclave scored four wins, including Best Film and Outstanding British Film, in a tie with Brady Corbet's The Brutalist, which earned him best director and best actor awards for Corbet and Adrien Brody. Following suit with two awards each were Emilia Perez, A Real Pain, Wicked, Dune: Part Two, Anora, and Wallace & Gromit: Vengeance Most Fowl.
