The '''Filmfare Special Award''' or '''Special Performance Award''' or '''Special Mention''' or '''Special Jury Award''' is given by the Filmfare magazine as part of its annual Filmfare Awards for Hindi films.

It acknowledges a special and unique performance and encourages artistes, filmmakers and musicians to break new ground in drama, direction, music and acting. It is only given if someone has done something really different. However, it is also given occasionally to film personalities for their contribution to the film industry.
