Zee 24 Ghanta Binodone Sera 24: Arijit Singh nominated for…; Check complete list of nominations

Zee 24 Ghanta Binodone Sera 24 has once again emerged as a landmark celebration of Bengali cinema, television, OTT and music. This year’s nominations have gained added attention as Arijit Singh has been nominated in the category of Best Playback Singer Male. However, the music stalwart announced his retirement yesterday, giving the awards a more emotional undertone. Alongside music, the ceremony continues to recognise actors, filmmakers, creators and technicians who have shaped Bengali storytelling over the past year.

The nominations reflect the growing diversity of Bengali entertainment, covering mainstream films, content-driven cinema, daily television shows and high-quality digital series. With popular awards, critics’ choice honours and detailed technical categories, the event highlights creativity both in front of and behind the camera.
