&lt;br /&gt;
That year they were known as the Clare Awards, after [[Clare Mendonça]], a film critic of &amp;#039;&amp;#039;[[The Times of India]]&amp;#039;&amp;#039; who had died in the same year.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;toi14&amp;quot; /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
In a short ceremony held at [[Metro Big Cinemas|Metro Cinema]] in Bombay (now Mumbai), awards in only 5 categories were handed out.&amp;lt;ref name=toi14&amp;gt;{{cite web| title = Tollywood&amp;#039;s tryst with Black Lady | url = http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/city/kolkata/Tollywoods-tryst-with-Black-Lady/articleshow/31698259.cms |date=9 March 2014| access-date = 2014-04-28 | newspaper = The Times of India}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;  &lt;br /&gt;
The Chief Guest of function was [[George V. Allen|George Allen]], US Ambassador to India. The ceremony was compared by actor [[David (actor)|David]], and it started with actress [[Nalini Jaywant]] singing the national anthem. This was followed by song and dance performance by various actors, musical performances by [[Talat Mehmood]], [[Geeta Roy]] and [[Mohammed Rafi]]. Next two performances were classical dance performances by [[Vyjayanthimala]] and [[Tanguturi Suryakumari|Surya Kumari]]. The finale of the performance section was a folk-dance performance, &amp;quot;Lure of Rajasthan&amp;quot; by [[Kamini Kaushal]] and her troupe.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;Bhattacharya2013&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{cite book|author =Brigadier Samir Bhattacharya|title=NOTHING BUT!: Book Three: What Price Freedom|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=HESVAgAAQBAJ&amp;amp;pg=PA215|date=19 December 2013|publisher=Partridge Publishing|isbn=978-1-4828-1625-9|pages=214–215}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This led to the section where David announced the awards. No nominations were announced, just the winners. Keep with the voting process, where the readers of the magazine,&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;Kavoori&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{cite book|author1=Aswin Punathambekar |author2=Anandam P. Kavoori |author3=Rachel Dwer |title=Global Bollywood|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=2CqERCzWn5gC&amp;amp;pg=PA244|publisher=NYU Press|isbn=978-0-8147-2944-1|pages=243–244|date=2008-08-01 }}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; decided the winners through postal votes, even the awards were given away by readers, chosen via a lucky draw. For example, the Best Film trophy was given by Ambassador Allen to a reader, Saijuddin from Hyderabad, who in turn presented it to Bimal Roy. This was followed by [[Filmfare Award for Best Actress|Best Actress]] which was won by [[Meena Kumari]] for &amp;#039;&amp;#039;Baiju Bawra&amp;#039;&amp;#039; and [[Filmfare Award for Best Actor|Best Actor]] went to [[Dilip Kumar]] for &amp;#039;&amp;#039;Daag&amp;#039;&amp;#039;.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;Bhattacharya2013&amp;quot;/&amp;gt; Next, ace music director [[Naushad]] won his first and only Filmfare Award, for Best Music for &amp;#039;&amp;#039;Baiju Bawra&amp;#039;&amp;#039;.&amp;lt;ref name=film&amp;gt;{{cite web|title=The Winners - 1953|url=http://filmfareawards.indiatimes.com/articleshow/articleshow/366328.cms|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20040309073303/http://filmfareawards.indiatimes.com/articleshow/articleshow/366328.cms|url-status=dead|archive-date=9 March 2004|publisher=Official Listings, Filmfare Awards, [[Indiatimes]]|access-date=8 May 2013}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; The final award, the [[Filmfare Award for Best Director|Best Director]] was won by [[Bimal Roy]], present by Sonny Cordiero, a reader from Mumbai.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;Bhattacharya2013&amp;quot;/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Incidentally, Bimal Roy and Dilip Kumar were the first winners of [[Filmfare Award for Best Director|Best Director]] and [[Filmfare Award for Best Actor|Best Actor]] respectively, and remained almost 6 decades later, the ones with the most wins in either category, with 7 and 8 awards respectively. Additionally, Meena Kumari, who was the first winner for [[Filmfare Award for Best Actress|Best Actress]], held the record for the most wins in the category (4) for 13 years, till her record was broken by [[Nutan]] with her 5th win at the [[26th Filmfare Awards]]. &amp;lt;ref name=film/&amp;gt; Fearing similar mob of fans as outside [[Metro Big Cinemas|Metro Cinema]], the venue of the award party was not announced publicly. Later, around hundred invitees gathered at [[Royal Willingdon Sports Club|Wellington Gymkhana Club]].&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;Bhattacharya2013&amp;quot;/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Hollywood star [[Gregory Peck]] was invited to be the guest of honour at the awards but couldn&amp;#039;t make it to the function since his flight from Colombo got delayed. However, Peck did attend the after-party banquet that followed the award night at Wellington Gymkhana Club, Mumbai.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;Bhattacharya2013&amp;quot;/&amp;gt;&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite web|url=http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/city/calcutta-times/I-behaved-like-Gregory-Peck-to-impress-Suraiya/articleshow/22778.cms |title=&amp;#039;I behaved like Gregory Peck to impress Suraiya&amp;#039; |work= The Times of India |date=2003-06-14 |access-date=2012-09-30}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;liveindia1&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{cite web|author =liveindia.com |url=http://www.liveindia.com/news/Filmfare_Awards_facts.html |title=Filmfare Awards Facts |publisher=Liveindia.com |access-date=2012-09-30}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
