"Working with Sudhir and playing the role of Ayyan Mani in Serious Men was a dream come true for me and the International Emmy nomination is validation of all the hard work we poured into the film.

Nawaz has been pitted against British star David Tennant (Des) as well as actors Roy Nik of Israel (Normali) and Christian Tappan of Colombia (El Robo del Siglo or The Great Heist) in the Best Actor category.
Sushmita Sen's Disney Hotstar series Aarya, directed by Ram Madhvani, has also made it to the final four of the best drama series category. The show is nominated alongside Chile's El Presidente, Israel's Tehran and UK show There She Goes season two.
Vir Das: For India has been nominated in the comedy segment along with popular French show Call My Agent, UK's Motherland: Christmas Special and Colombian series Promesas de Campana.
The winners for 2021 International Emmy Awards will be announced during an in-person ceremony, to be held in New York City on November 22. Last year, Netflix's critically-acclaimed series Delhi Crime had won the best drama series honour at the International Emmy Awards.
