The 32nd Filmfare Awards were held in 1985. Sharaabi led the ceremony with 11 nominations, followed by Aaj Ki Awaaz and Saaransh with 7 nominations and Sohni Mahiwal and Sparsh with 5 nominations each. Saaransh, Sohni Mahiwal and Sparsh won 3 awards each, thus becoming the most-awarded films at the ceremony. This year, the trend backed away from Parallel Cinema as more commercial films won awards.
