India is crossing all its boundaries no matter we talk about aeronautical science or culture and art. India is proud yet again as Shefali Shah gets nominated for her powerful role in ‘Delhi Crime 2’. The first season of the same series won the award in the Best Drama Series category in 2020.

This year, Shefali Shah has been nominated for the category of Best Performance by an Actress for the Netflix show. Other actors who have been nominated for the same title alongside her are Connie Nielsen, Billie Piper and Karla Souza.

"OMGGGGG I still can't believe it. Feel so so honoured to be nominated at the International Emmys alongside such esteemed artists. This one is really special and more so because it is for a character I am very very close to, Vartika Chaturvedi and for my favourite show Delhi Crime 2. This is for all of us in Delhi Crime," Shah’s Instagram caption read.

Other Indian Actors Who Are Nominated For Emmy Awards

While Shefali Shah carries on her legacy of her name and fame at an international award show, there are other Indian actors who are set to create their own.
