The maximum 13 nominations have been bagged by "Barfi!", about love between a deaf and mute boy and an autistic girl. It is followed by nine nominations for Shoojit Sircar's comedy film "Vicky Donor", about a sperm donor. Following closely is Anurag Kashyap's "Gangs of Wasseypur - Part I" and Karan Johar's action-packed production "Agneepath".
"It's been a phenomenal year for the Indian film industry and the nominations for this year will definitely reflect this. The growth has been remarkable," Sabbas Joseph, director, Wizcraft International Entertainment and IIFA, said in a statement.
Other films like "Cocktail", "Kahaani", "Paan Singh Tomar" and late filmmaker Yash Chopra's last directorial "Jab Tak Hai Jaan" have also secured themselves a place in the 14th IIFA nominations.
