The best rising actor title went to Rohan Mehra aka Naksh from "Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai".
Elated on receiving the award, Rohan told India Forums: "It's a very prestigious award and it's my first award of the year 2016. I hope for many more to come. It's a great feeling to receive this prestigious award; I feel privileged. Karan and I were from the same show and it was a great feeling to receive an award along with him."
Excited about receiving the best actress award, Radhika told the entertainment portal: "To be very honest, I never thought that I will bag an award for the best actress in my very first year with my very first show. I think its because of the love I receive from everyone around me, be it my fans and everyone else who supported me! I feel truly grateful right now that I had all the right people besides me."
