ABOUT DEVI AWARDS

The world may or may not celebrate the remarkable achievements and journeys of women, marked by resilience, grace, and triumph. But The New Indian Express does.

With every challenge women face and overcome, they attain success and encourage others to embrace their identities while rising above societal norms and limitations.

In recognition of this unwavering spirit, The New Indian Express honours these women with the Devi Award 2025. As we begin the year on a celebratory note, the Devi Awards in Chennai will recognise women whose indomitable strength inspires perseverance and determination in others.

After all, every woman is a powerful example, offering one and all with a reason to persist, persevere, and believe in the boundless potential of humanity.
