ARY Digital recently held its first ARY People’s Choice Awards, commemorating the achievements of talented individuals from the arenas of entertainment, fashion & lifestyle. The platform gave an opportunity to the public to celebrate the performances of their beloved artists who have exceled in their respective fields.

Especially in tiring times of COVID-19, ARY took it as an honour to celebrate and recognize the efforts of all those from the media fraternity who have worked day and night in tough situations to spread hope and positivity through their work on television. ARY Digital also ensured the health and safety of all those involved in the awards, maintaining a strict adherence to SOPs.

The awards, hosted by Ahmed Butt and Vasay Chaudhry, were recorded on a closed set with zero public in attendance. The show honoured artists in 29 categories and the audience at home were encouraged to cast their votes via online polls to support their favorites.

Conducted throughout the month of February 2021, the event received an overwhelming response from fans and patrons. With multiple options available in each category, ranging from an actor’s skill in a particular role to clothing design, ARY People’s Choice Awards had something in store for everyone. Special awards were also given to some of the most prominent programs in their particular categories.
