Galatta Media is a pioneer in the field of entertainment and in its 19 year journey, has been constantly striving to bring our subscribers the best of content from the world of cinema, TV, radio and online platforms. In 2018, we decided to come out with the first ever awards ceremony to celebrate talents from across the fields of television, radio and online platforms, all under the same roof & on the same stage. Following the success of this event, we conducted the second edition of this awards show - the Galatta Nakshatra Awards 2019, a couple of days back. This GNA 2019 was held at the Anna Centenary Library Auditorium, on October 19th.

This event was bigger and grander than last time with nearly 40 awards being presented under the non-competing and competition categories. Some people's favourites were selected under the non-competing categories while the majority of the awards were chosen by the people themselves through a fair voting process.
