For which film the Best Director Award of 2016 was given to Sanjay Leela…

Sanjay Leela Bhansali received the prestigious Filmfare Award for Best Director in 2016 for his historical epic, Bajirao Mastani. This film, released in 2015, was a massive critical and commercial success, showcasing Bhansali's signature visual grandeur and storytelling prowess. The movie starred Ranveer Singh, Deepika Padukone, and Priyanka Chopra in pivotal roles. While Tanu Weds Manu Returns (Option A) was a popular romantic comedy, it did not win Bhansali this specific award. Piku (Option C) was directed by Shoojit Sircar, and Bajrangi Bhaijaan (Option D) was directed by Kabir Khan. Therefore, based on the official award records for that year, Bajirao Mastani is the correct answer.
