India’s No.1 short video app, Moj, has shown tremendous growth in terms of users, consumption as well as its large community of content creators. After the enormous success of Moj Superstar Hunt, the platform is now heading to the heartland of talent, Punjab, to help surface the regional talent of the state with Moj Next Punjabi Star. Punjab is the heart of culture with a wide spectrum of young, new-age talent urging to deliver their best in all spheres of art and entertainment. In a promise to support its creators across the country, the online short video app aims to recognize local talent who dream of using their voices and creativity to build an exciting career as an online influencer.
A virtual campaign kick-starting from 22nd November until 24th December, the auditions for the hunt begin today. The top 3 winners will win cash prizes of INR 2,50,000, INR 1,00,000, and INR 50,000 each. Week-on-week ten lucky performers will receive shopping vouchers as prizes. After three weeks, 30 participants with the highest engagement on their content will move to the finale. These shortlisted participants will then fight for the coveted title and the top three winners will be announced on 24th December 2021. This new initiative gives the talented and innovative set of established and emerging creators an opportunity to showcase their engaging, impactful, and inspiring content to the world.
Moj Next Punjabi Star will be judged by the Punjabi sensation, playback singer, and songwriter Akhil and hosted by the vivacious Priyanka Tyagi.
