'Les Miserables' received four gongs, while India's only hope, actor Suraj Sharma missed the BAFTA EE Rising Star Award. Ben Affleck walked away with the best director's trophy for 'Argo', which is based on the rescue of American hostages in Iran during the 1979 revolution. The movie, a big winner at the 70th Golden Globe awards, too, also received the best editing title at the ceremony, organised by the British Academy of Film and Television Arts (BAFTA).
