The grand event celebrated the achievements of many artists and technicians from the Telugu film industry. Many popular personalities like Nagarjuna, Naga Chaitanya, and others were present at the event. Telangana Chief Minister Revanth Reddy also attended and presented awards to the winners.

Chiranjeevi received the prestigious NTR National Award at the event. He was honored with a certificate, a cash prize, and loud applause from the audience. The award was presented by Chief Minister Revanth Reddy along with senior Bollywood actress Madhuri Dixit. This moment became one of the highlights of the evening.

While speaking at the event, Chiranjeevi praised the Telangana government for restarting the awards. He said, "A state where artists are respected will always prosper." He appreciated the efforts taken to bring back these awards, which had stopped for some time. According to him, such recognition encourages both senior artists and young talent.
