In a paramount occasion,
travel creator Kamiya Jani was honoured with the National Digital Creators Award in the Best Travel Creator category for Curly Tales by PM Modi.
The event marked a significant landmark not just for Jani but for content creators across the nation.
Kamiya while reflecting on the unforgettable experience, expresses, that It was one of the most memorable moments of his life. Given the way content creation has gained popularity and everybody is a content creator in its own way. To get this kind of recognition from the Prime Minister of the country gives a seal and stamp on our profession
She highlighted the significance of such recognition in the evolving landscape of content creation, stating, that this is something to be taken seriously, with the kind of impact content creators are having on the overall community, be it in their own niche or whatever expertise they hold.
We just got a lot of value and respect for our profession, which was lacking all this while.
The ceremony, where PM Modi honoured 23 outstanding creators from various fields,
left a lasting impression on Jani
Recalling the moment she stood before the Prime Minister, the 35-year-old remarks, that it was a very special moment and it will be remembered by him all through his life.
The moment she was right there in front of him, she wasn’t sure if this moment was happening for real or not. She pretty much forgot what she had thought she would say and she went to ended saying something else
Jani’s interaction with PM Modi also threw light on the power of social media influence. She did have a question for him, ‘Which place shall she visit first, Lakshadweep or Dwarka?’
Whatever he posts on social media, clearly emerges as a trend. He is literally the influencer of the influencers and he is the trend,” she observes.
As a travel and tourism enthusiast, Jani appreciated the Prime Minister’s encouragement to explore various states in India.
“He is literally the influencer of the influencers and he is the trend. She is from the travel and tourism space and she is happy to see that kind of encouragement coming from him to visit various states in India. He also mentioned about visiting the religious spots and not just for temples, but to boost local economies, by supporting them. By buying handicrafts, staying there for a few days, enjoying their culture and much more,” she further adds.
The first edition of National Awards for content creators signifies a paradigm shift in recognising the impact of digital content on society.
Jani says, “Holding National Awards for content creators in itself says a lot. This kind of recognition till now was only given to the film industry.
We have heard of National Film Awards, and always looked up to actors and actresses.
Here, content creators are doing work which is leading to social change, it’s not just about dancing and making reels.”
Jani further adds that someone is talking about sustainability, culture and heritage, technology and so much more, all of these elements are so important.
Audiences can relate more to content creators because we are from the same community, we are not stars who are only on the big screen. And, she feels glad that the government of India is identifying and appreciating our work.
