Vaishali Sharma, Senior VP, Marketing & Communications, MAX2 said, “At Sony MAX2 we believe in abiding by the brand promise of enriching lives with the magic of iconic films and what better way to celebrate the rich heritage of Hindi cinema than to establish an award especially meant for the era of yesteryears. Every decade of Hindi cinema has shaped the industry and has had so much to offer. After celebrating the decades of 80s and 90s in season 1 and receiving such a great response, it is time to celebrate the richness of the 70s which was a turning point in Indian cinema.”
