"It is truly amazing to acknowledge the breadth of her success, and we are honoured to bestow the Nielsen Box Office Award on one who has done so incredibly much in so little time," he added.

Priyanka, a former Miss World, will be the second recipient of the award. She joins Hong Kong film actor and producer Andy Lau, who received the inaugural award at the 2007 ceremony.
