Dolly Singh gets Instagram 2025 Rings award
Earlier this month, Instagram introduced Rings, an award created to honour creators who dare to be original and push creative boundaries. The platform has now announced the 2025 Rings winners, and among the 25 winners worldwide, Dolly stands out as the only winner from India to receive the recognition.
“Being recognised with the Rings Award, is so surreal that the feeling has still not sunk in. It’s definitely one of my career’s biggest moments yet and a shiver goes down my spine, I get goosebumps every time I think about it,” Dolly said in the statement.
She added, “The jury panel for the award is impeccable and just the fact that these brilliant, genius minds have seen my content is unbelievable! I hope that I continue to make my audiences proud with the content I continue to make.”
Talking about her content creation journey, Dolly shared, “Instagram has been a platform that became my playground from the get go, where I first played with fashion, then comedy and now into much larger storytelling. Here, I’ve been able to experiment, take risks, and share my most authentic self with my community.”
