The awards will empower kids and give them an opportunity to voice their choice and decide their favourites among the nominees, a release issued here yesterday said.
The children will have to tune into Prime Pogo channel between 1800 and 2000 hrs to catch the nominees in each of the ten categories, the release said. Every week, nominees from two categories will be featured within Prime Pogo, giving the kids a chance to cast their votes on a weekly basis for five weeks in a row. As each set of a category would be aired only for a week, the children can register their choice for a particular category during the week of telecast.
Five lucky children, who exercise their choices through Pogo voice awards, will get a chance to personally present the award to their favourite star.
