Nina Elavia Jaipuria, Business Head, Kids' Cluster, Viacom18, said, "At Nickelodeon, we have always believed in empowering children and giving them an opportunity to voice their choices. It is with this belief that we started KCA and with each passing year, not only have we dialled up the connect with our young audiences and their parents but also have exponentially increased the property’s appeal to the advertising community. This being Viacom18’s 10th anniversary year, and Nickelodeon being one of the founding brands the network launched with, KCA will be bigger, better, louder and slimier than ever before.”

The awards show will celebrate 2017’s cinematic excellence and present top honours to the best of the best from the Indian film, television and kids gaming industry. As the youngest demographic rises in significance to the celebrity community and with celebrities increasingly focusing on building a fan base among this audience, KCA provides the perfect platform to the stars to broaden their fan following.

It will be anchored by comedian Bharti Singh and actor Rithvik Dhanjani.
