Ever since the pandemic in 2020, social media has bloomed and is growing with each passing day. A lot of budding creators have grown over the years. And now we see newer creators sharing content on different topics in a humorous way. The creators not only dance or make funny reels or make-up tutorials but a section of them also speak about spirality, how they battled alcoholism and also call celebrities and spiritual gurus and enlight the youth over a lot of other things rather than simply scrolling social media endlessly
To honour these skills, PM Narendra Modi presented the first-ever National Creators' Awards at the Bharat Mandapam in Delhi. Some of the most popular digital creators were awarded on Friday, including Ranveer Allahbadia, Kamiya Jani, Shraddha Jain, RJ Raunac, and Ankit Baiyanpuria.
The National Creator Awards received over 1.5 lakh nominations across 20 different categories in the first round, for which 10 lakh votes were cast. Eventually, 23 winners were decided.
