Salman Khan not only rocked the box office with his blockbuster "Dabangg" but also triumphed at the 17th Annual Star Screen Awards by bagging the best actor trophy for the action-comedy.

Overall, "Dabangg" bagged six awards, including best music (Sajid-Wajid), best new talent in music (Mamta Sharma), most promising newcomer (Sonakshi Sinha), best choreography (Farah Khan), and best action (Master Vijayan) and emerged as the most awarded film of the evening.
