News18 Showsha Reel Awards are back after a short hiatus, and they promise to be bigger, better and grander. This year, the awards will celebrate the growing bond between the world of over-the-top (OTT) platforms and the Hindi film industry, as we honour all achievers and stars on February 25 (Saturday) in Mumbai. The awards will bring together the greatest talents of Bollywood and the OTT platforms under one roof, for the first time.
The digital space has not only given us content that was missing on the big screen, but also changed the idea of stars and the concept of heroes. News18 Showsha Reel Awards attempts to recognise faces that have left a significant impact on the audiences with the risks they took.
The nominees for Best Actress in the Popular Choice (Web Series) Category are:
Samantha Ruth Prabhu (The Family Man 2): Samantha Ruth Prabhu made her OTT debut with The Family Man 2, which was also her first pan-India project. The actress immediately made a mark with her role as the antagonist and a rebel leader in the spy thriller. She is one of the most popular actresses in India now.
Sushmita Sen (Aarya 2): Sushmita Sen is one of the most prolific actors in the Hindi film industry.
