An Indian programme has for the first-time ever won an international Emmy. At the 48th International Emmy Awards, Delhi Crime was awarded the ‘Best Drama’. The ceremony, held online on Monday night, featured 44 nominees across 11 categories, from 20 countries. A seven-part Netflix Original Series created by Richie Mehta, it is a police procedural show, based on the 2012 Delhi gangrape case. “I never anticipated getting here — it’s the culmination of years of work by hundreds of people, sometimes in total isolation and defiance. Delhi Crime is a complete labour of love, born out of sadness, anger, frustration, and ultimately, compassion. The entire team from start to finish should take a bow for giving their all to this vision,” said Mehta in a statement after the Emmy win. Mehta, 41, has other titles such as Amal (2007), Siddharth (2013) and I’ll Follow You Down (2014) in his filmography. There is a second season of the web series in the works, this time with a different crime, but perhaps the same cast and characters.
