The event was also graced by the esteemed presence of Brijesh Pathak, Deputy Chief Minister of Uttar Pradesh; Sandeep Bansal, Member of the All India Industry and Trade Board; Prabhnath Rai, Member of the All India Bhojpuri Society; Mukesh Bahadur Singh, President of the Indo-American Chamber of Commerce, Lucknow; Pawan Singh Chauhan, President of SR Group of Education and Member of the Legislative Council; Rajesh Rai, Member of the Information Department; Surinder Singh Rajput, National Spokesperson of the Congress; and Mrs. Anita Sehgal, anchor and actress – all of whom added elegance and prestige to the venue with their presence.
The night had its glamour, of course, but what stood out was the focus on the work, especially the backstage work that often goes unnoticed. Editors, set designers, lighting crews, writers, and background score artists were also given genuine appreciation on stage.
This year’s awards covered over 50 categories, recognising excellence in acting, directing, writing, music, production design, editing, and more. Beyond the core awards, special honours were also presented. The Lifetime Achievement Award went to Vijay Khare, whose influence on Bhojpuri cinema spans decades.
