Mumbai, June 25:- Ajay Devgn has added another feather to his cap, winning the Best Actor (Male) – Movies (Popular) award at the second edition of the Movified Digital Awards. His powerful portrayal in the sports biopic Maidaan not only struck a chord with audiences but also earned him the top honour in a ceremony built entirely on public choice.
Unlike conventional jury-based formats, the Movified Digital Awards 2.0 stands out for being fully audience-driven — a refreshing departure that places public sentiment at the heart of recognition. Devgn’s win reflects the emotional weight and authenticity he brought to his role as Syed Abdul Rahim, the visionary coach who shaped Indian football during its golden era.
Maidaan, which has been widely applauded for its storytelling and performances, continues to leave a lasting impact, and Devgn’s performance in particular was celebrated for its depth and restraint.
Speaking about the significance of the event, Movified Promoter Sudhanshu Kumar shared that the awards were conceived as a way to celebrate storytelling that genuinely connects with audiences. “This initiative was born out of a desire to spotlight talent that truly moves people. It’s more than just awards — it’s about passion and creativity being recognised where it matters most,” he said.
Neekita Singh, Director of Movified, echoed the sentiment, adding that Movified is proud to champion creators and artists who shape culture and influence hearts through cinema.
As streaming platforms and theatrical releases converge in India’s ever-evolving entertainment landscape, the Movified Digital Awards serves as a testament to the power of public appreciation. Ajay Devgn’s recognition stands not just as a personal milestone, but as a symbol of how audience-led platforms are reshaping the way success is measured in the industry.
Exclusive behind-the-scenes moments, heartfelt winner reactions, and event highlights are expected to roll out online in the coming days, offering fans an intimate look at a night that celebrated cinema through the voice of the people.
