He said, “The sole motto of this event is to recognize and appreciate the content creators with special regard to the Bengali community. This event glorifies the world of content creators and brings it closer to the people of our country. The result of this and such forthcoming events would end up bringing the same respect to a YouTuber or Video Creator as Engineers and Doctors. Thus, addressing Content Creation as one of the most worthy and seekable professions.”

Udayan Biswas, Managing Director of Banglahunt Digital Media Pvt ltd claimed the uniqueness of this event as he said, “This would be the first ever event which concentrates on giving special recognition to the Content Creators of Bengali Community. We shall extend the boundaries of this event to involve similar summits at different places and in other languages.”

Avik Bhattacharya, Marketing Manager of Bangla Hunt, also brought about the significance of this event in his words,  “We frequently find such award companies which award the actors, actresses of big and small screens. But we realized that this overshadowed the influencers. So we thought to bring all the content creators together by starting from our very own Bengali community.”

Banglahunt Social Summit, 2022 became the first event to mark the success of Bengali Content Creators and Influencers. Krishna Chandra Garain has been instrumental in bringing the world of creativity to the attention of modern society.
