The nominees for the second yearly Pakistan International Screen Awards (PISA), which will be held in Dubai on November 5, are now available. There are 24 award categories this year, and the organizers have doubled the number of prizes granted to digital content producers.
This year’s awards recognize notable performers in the fields of television, music, fashion, and digital culture. This time no film-related categories are included because, as we all are aware, of the pandemic we were facing.
With the exemption of the judging categories, the winners will be chosen by online voting.
