A recap of the previous standout winners from the Cosmopolitan Blogger & Creator Awards - Entertainment edition

The Cosmopolitan Blogger Awards have always been a highlight on the calendar for India’s digital creators, and this year, the magic is getting a serious upgrade. Returning for its eighth edition as the Cosmopolitan Blogger & Creator Awards, this isn’t just a rebrand—it’s a reflection of how Cosmo continues to honour influence and originality in the content world. The awards are set to celebrate voices across platforms and styles, from comedy and performance to digital storytelling.

What makes this year especially exciting is how closely the awards mirror the evolution of the creator economy itself. The event recognises internet culture as a whole, along with the people shaping it every day. Expect heartfelt moments, big reveals, and a fresh crop of digital stars stepping into the spotlight. Whether you follow creators for laughs, movement, or motivation, the Cosmopolitan Blogger & Creator Awards are gearing up to showcase the best in the game.

Here’s a look at some of the biggest names honoured in past editions of the event:

Sakshi Shivdasani – Breakout Comic of the Year (2022)

Sakshi Shivdasani’s win marked the arrival of a comic voice that felt refreshingly unfiltered. Her humour thrives on everyday chaos, awkward thoughts, and relatable inner monologues that instantly resonate. In 2022, she was named Breakout Comic of the Year by Cosmopolitan India—a nod to how quickly audiences connected with her distinct comedic rhythm. Since then, Shivdasani has continued to build a loyal following on social media and is now one of the biggest content creators in the country.

Kusha Kapila – Comic of the Year (2023)

By the time Kusha Kapila won Comic of the Year in 2023, she had already become one of India’s most recognisable digital personalities. Her comedy blends social observation, fashion, and pop culture with sharp timing and confidence. Kapila’s content feels both entertaining and culturally aware, striking a balance few manage to sustain. Beyond comedy, she has since ventured into full-fledged acting and entrepreneurship with her lingerie and shapewear brand, Underneat.

Apoorva Mukhija – Comic of the Year (2024)

Apoorva Mukhija’s Comic of the Year win reflected a growing appetite for humour that feels raw and self-aware.

Orhan Awatramani (Orry) – OG Game Changer Comic (2024)

Orry’s recognition as the OG Game Changer celebrated a creator who never followed conventional internet rules.

The 2024 award acknowledged his early impact on how personality itself became content.

Nora Fatehi – Breakthrough Dancer and Performer of the Year (2025)

Nora Fatehi’s win marked a moment where performance met digital influence. Known for her commanding stage presence, she brought dance into mainstream pop culture conversations online. The 2025 award recognised her ability to translate movement into mass appeal across screens, reflecting how creators today move fluidly between platforms and formats.

Karishma’s Comic of the Year win in 2025 spotlighted a creator whose humour connects through simplicity, timing, and emotional familiarity.
