The Screen Awards was an annual awards ceremony held in India, honouring professional excellence in Bollywood. The nomination and award selection was done by a panel of distinguished professionals from the industry. The awards were introduced by Screen magazine of the Indian Express Group in 1995. The magazine was acquired by Star India in 2015 and subsequently closed down.{{Cite news|author=IndiaToday.in (staff)|date=10 March 2015|title=Star acquires 'Screen', The Indian Express Group's film magazine|work=India Today|url=http://indiatoday.intoday.in/education/story/star-acquires-screen-the-indian-express-groups-film-magazine/1/423061.html|access-date=28 July 2019}} Star India continues to sponsor the event under the Star Screen Awards title.

The name of each year's ceremony was determined by the presenting network: the first "Star Screen Awards" were telecast on Star Plus from 2000 until 2011, after which the "Colors Screen Awards" were broadcast on Colors and the "Life OK Screen Awards" on Life OK, each for a period of two years. As of 2019, Star continues to hold the television distribution rights to the event.{{Cite web|url=http://indianexpress.com/about/star-screen-awards|title=Screen Awards|publisher=Indian Express Newspapers|access-date=9 March 2011|date=2002}}
