Notably, Prasad Oak is the only actor to have been nominated twice for portraying the same role (Anand Dighe), winning on his first nomination. Additionally, Chandrakant Kulkarni, Subodh Bhave, and Adinath Kothare are the only individuals to have received nominations for both Best Actor and Best Director, and all three have gone on to win in the latter category. Mahesh Manjrekar and Prasad Oak are the only personalities to have won in both categories: Best Actor and Best Director.

Furthermore, Mahesh Manjrekar is the only individual to have been nominated in all three major categories—Best Actor, Best Director, and Best Supporting Actor. In terms of national crossover, Amol Palekar and Nana Patekar are the only actors to have won both the Marathi and Hindi Filmfare Award for Best Actor.

Shriram Lagoo, Riteish Deshmukh, and Mohan Agashe have all been nominated in both languages as well. Sayaji Shinde and Atul Kulkarni hold the rare honor of being nominated for Filmfare Awards across three film industries—Marathi, Hindi, and South Indian cinema.
