Woohoo! Samsung Members from India Shine Bright at Galaxy Unpacked, Om Wows the Universe with Top Award
When Om Amol Vadgave received the invitation to be a part of Galaxy Unpacked 2022, his joy knew no bounds. Although this was his third time at a Samsung Unpacked event, but this evening was special. Amol’s video entry had been shortlisted for the Samsung Members Live Global Creators Awards!
“Getting nominated for a global award and getting a chance to represent Samsung India with the entire world watching was stellar for me. Then to have won the award – it is surreal,” an excited Om said after winning the top award.
Before this year’s edition of Galaxy Unpacked, Samsung Members across the globe were asked about the most cinematic thing that ever happened in their life. They responded with some mind-blowing videos and photographs. Out of hundreds of super cool entries received, six from India made the cut.
Amongst the finalists were three creators from India – Vadgave from Sangli, Maharashtra and Darshan Jaiswal from Vadodara, Gujarat were among the final contestants for the Best Video Creator Award, while Siddharth Abhishek from Patna, Bihar had his entry nominated for the Best Photo Creator category.
“There lies beauty in every small thing. Capturing videos and photos is my way of expressing myself and bringing that beauty to my audience, and I’m thankful to my Galaxy device for enabling me to do this,” Om told Samsung Newsroom.

The Samsung Members Live was hosted by Cristian, a Galaxy user and fan who also hosted the 2021 edition of Samsung Members Live Galaxy Unpacked. His co-host was Anupam Tripathi, who took the world by storm with his performance in the popular Netflix series Squid Game.
Fellow finalist Darshan was very excited to meet his favourite star from Squid Games. “I couldn’t believe it was a Squid Game star hosting us at the event. It made the Unpacked 2021 even more exciting,” said Darshan.
It was a moment of a lifetime for Siddharth, finalist in the best photo creator category. “As a freelancer, it was great to have my photo shortlisted as one of the final entries for a global award. My Galaxy device helps me explore myself through the photographs that I capture, and I feel really happy that Samsung Members empowered me to be able to make the best of this opportunity,” he said.
