Every year a cultural program is also held in this award function. Since this year is the silver jubilee of Meril-Pratham Alo Awards, many surprises have been kept this time. Along with hosting, Hanif Sanket planned and directed the entire event this time.
This time there will be 'Popular Choice Award', 'Critics Choice Award' and 'Lifetime Achievement Award'. Every year there is speculation among the people about who will get these awards and honours. After the names of the award winners are announced this evening, these speculations will come to an end.
