The two other Indian nominations--Aarya and Vir Das: For India--also lost in Drama Series and Comedy categories.
The Indian challenge at the 49th International Emmy Awards, which concluded at Casa Cipriani in New York City on late Monday night (US Eastern Time), ended with Nawazuddin Siddiqui losing out to Scottish actor David Tennant in the Best Performance by an Actor category.
Ram Madhvani's Aarya was edged out by the Israeli spy thriller series Tehran, which got The International Emmy for Drama Series. And Vir Das's comic take on Indian history, Vir Das: For India, made way for yet another Netflix acquisition, Call My Agent: Season 4, which walked away with The International Emmy for Comedy.
Tennant, who became famous as The Doctor in the British TV series Doctor Who, was honoured for his work in the three-part crime drama miniseries Des, which centres around the Scottish serial killer Dennis Nilsen, who was arrested in 1983, after the discovery of human remains which had blocked a drain near his London home.
