The National Film Award for Best Supporting Actress is an honour presented annually at the National Film Awards of India since 1984 to an actress for the best performance in a supporting role within Indian cinema. The National Film Awards were established in 1954 and are presented by the Directorate of Film Festivals, the organization set up by Ministry of Information and Broadcasting, India. The National Film Awards instituted the "Best Supporting Actress" category in 1984 as the "Rajat Kamal Award for the Best Supporting Actress". It is one of several awards presented for feature films and the winners are awarded with a "Rajat Kamal", certificate and a cash prize that amounted to 50,000. Throughout the years, accounting for ties and repeat winners, the Government of India has presented a total of 33 Best Supporting Actress awards to 31 different actresses. Although the Indian cinema produces films in more than 20 languages, the actresses whose performances have won awards have worked in eight major languages: Bengali, English, Hindi, Manipuri, Malayalam, Oriya, Tamil, and Urdu. |
