Celebrating talent, dedication, and outstanding achievements across the cultural landscape, Swade Ahllade, in association with Dipanjan Ghosh Entertainment, hosted the prestigious Excellence Award 2026 at the Press Club, Kolkata.

The grand event gathered distinguished personalities, brilliant artists, and notable figures from the entertainment industry to recognize hard work and inspiring success. Supported by Daily Entertainment News, the ceremony served as a vibrant platform honoring creative excellence and valuable contributions to the arts.

Among the prominent attendees and honored guests gracing the occasion were people who have made their contributions in different fields.

Some of the recipients of the award were Rhitobrata Bhattacharya, Debasish Mondal, Abhishek Bose, Sharly Modak, Nilayan Chatterjee, Dr. Rupali Basu, and Arjun Chakraborty. Their presence added charm and grandeur to the afternoon, highlighting the spirit of camaraderie and appreciation within the industry.

Abhishek Bose said, “I feel humbled to receive an award. The number of eminent personalities who have received their award before me made me realize that I am not on the same level as them in terms of achievement. However, getting an award motivates you to work harder. I have always been very inclined towards the arts. I started doing plays at school, and getting the appreciation from the audience was amazing. To date, I love getting feedback from the audience. And if my acting gives someone happiness after a long day at work, my work is done”.

Rhitobrata Bhattacharya said that he was happy to get an award that recognized his work as a journalist and director. He further mentioned that more such talented individuals need to be honoured for their contributions.

Dr. Rupali Basu said, “Excellence is a word that is used so much in the health sector. The awarding committee thought that I have excelled in this field enough to get an award, which makes me feel wonderful”.

The event concluded with felicitations and inspiring words from the organizers, reaffirming their commitment to encouraging artistic talent and fostering creative growth in the years to come.
