Following a year of disruption due to the pandemic, Nickelodeon has infused innovation into the extravaganza with a whole new format and a host of firsts to its credit; a digitized transformation followed by all new and innovative nomination categories and a never seen before KCA squad. The nominations which were extended to six new categories including Best YouTube influencer, Best Kid Influencer, to name a few, reflected the times we live in and celebrated those who upped the spirits during lockdown. The phenomenal response received by the awards this year with around 15 lakh votes makes this award even more special.
