The 'Lokmat Maharashtrian of The Year’ award recognises and honours the individuals that have risen above the rest, who have positively impacted the state and have put Brand Maharashtra on the Indian and global radar. Ranveer’s performance in Bajirao Mastani made for a walk down the memory lanes of history and put forth the vision, aura and grandeur of Maharashtra’s pride - Peshwa Bajirao.

Cinematic legends like Amitabh Bachchan and Dilip Kumar have been honoured with this award in the past, making this win even more special for Ranveer.

Super Proud of you Ranveer!!​
