Hits FM Music Awards – started 15 years ago – had awards in seven different categories. New categories have been added every few years since.
“Hits FM Music Awards is not a competition; the winner of an award is only representing the category, we are all celebrating the success of Nepali music industry and how far we’ve come,” said Program Director of Hits FM Music Awards, Mandira Dhungel.
The date for the final event and the recipient of the Lifetime Achievement Award are yet to be announced but the organizers said the finale will probably be held before the third week of January 2013.
