Actor-turned-politician Payal Ghosh on Saturday gave her fans a piece of good news as she shared winning 'Most Promising Newcomer' award. Received from ICMEI's Hindi Cinema Samman Samaroh, Ghosh wrote that the ceremony this time took place online due to pandemic in comparison to being hosted at Vigyan Bhawan (premier convention centre of Government of India in New Delhi) every year.
Secretary General ICMEI (International Chamber of Media and Entertainment Industry) Ashok Tyagi and Chairman, Entertainment Industry Co-ordination Committee of ICMEI Rajeev Chaudhari presented the award to Ghosh on Saturday.

Actor Payal Ghosh joins Ramdas Athawale’s RPI
Payal Ghosh, who accused filmmaker Anurag Kashyap of forcing himself on her, joined the Republican Party of India. She along with some others joined the party in the presence of its chief and Union Minister Ramdas Athawale.
Talking to a digital portal, Ghosh revealed that it was Dr. B. R. Ambedkar's teachings that pushed her to join the RPI. "I was influenced by BR Ambedkar's teachings because it says education is not about degrees, but it is about your outlook towards life. And it teaches you to be an independent thinker and I completely agree with him on this," Ghosh told Outlook.
Ghosh was appointed vice president of the women's wing of the party. Athawale said that the entry of Ghosh and others into the party would strengthen it.
I have been appointed as the vice president for women wing of RPI. Thanks @RamdasAthawale sir for believing in me. This is my honor to accept it. It's one step closer to getting justice.
