Pakistan’s entertainment and digital industry is growing. It’s getting a recommendation from all over the globe and especially YouTube creators.
Last year Pakistan International Screen Awards (PISA) was launched were well-reputed celebrities, YouTube content creators, and many other faces joined the event.
Where Ducky Bhai won the best YouTuber of the year award in Pakistan and Zaid Ali also won the best Vlogger award as well.
Along with that, the Drama serial “Mere Pass Tum Ho” bagged up some amazing awards that night and stole the show. After getting such a big response from the viewers, PISA awards are back with a bang. Even though last year some of the celebrities criticized the PISA management.
Last year due to the pandemic Pakistani film industry faced a hard time as the theatres and cinemas were closed majority of the films didn’t release. So, because of that last year, the film category was set aside until next year.
This year’s PISA awards won’t be the same, because the new jury will be the part of the prestigious award and take a look deeply at the achievements all the content creators and entertainers have earned.
