Aditya Roy Kapur, Anil Kapoor’s The Night Manager Gets Nominated In Emmys 2024
The Indian version of “The Night Manager”, starring Anil Kapoor, Aditya Roy Kapoor and Sobhita Dhulipala, has received a nomination in the drama series category at the 2024 International Emmy Awards.
“The Night Manager” was the only entry from India across 14 categories at the nominations that were announced on Thursday in New York by the International Academy of Television Arts & Sciences.
The series, directed by Sandeep Modi and Priyanka Ghose, is adapted from both — the John le Carré’s novel and the British show, starring Tom Hiddleston, Hugh Laurie and Olivia Colman.
“The Night Manager” will compete with French show “Les Gouttes de Dieu” (Drops of God), “The Newsreader – Season 2” from Australia and “Iosi, El Espia Arrepentido” season two from Argentina in the category.
Actor Anil Kapoor, who played the role of antagonist Shelly Rungta in the series, said he is “ecstatic” over the nomination, which is a “worthy reminder” that hard work always pays off.
“It’s just been brought to my attention that our Indian adaptation of ‘The Night Manager’ has been nominated for an International Emmy. I remember when the offer came in, I was conflicted. It offered me the opportunity to play a character so complex, but also, on the other hand, the huge responsibility of trying to add newness and authenticity to a part that had been played so masterfully by Hugh Laurie.
“This validation from the Emmys, in addition to the tremendous love that we have received from fans worldwide, is a worthy reminder that hard work always pays.. I am ecstatic and hungrier than ever before for what’s to come,” the actor said.
The International Emmys, to be held in New York on November 25, will be hosted by Indian comedian Vir Das, who won an award last year for his stand-up special “Landing”.
Nominees for International Emmys come from different countries such as Argentina, Australia, Belgium, Brazil, India, Chile, Colombia, France, Japan, Germany and many others.
“Every year the international television community competes to be recognized on the International Emmys’ much coveted global stage,” said International Academy President & CEO Bruce L. Paisner.
“We congratulate the Nominees for their outstanding programs and performances, they are once again a testament to the universal appeal of great storytelling across all genres, countries and cultures,” Paisner said.
The other nominee categories are for best performance by an actor, actress, comedy, documentary, non-scripted entertainment, short-form series, sports documentary, telenovela, TV movie / mini-series, kids: animation, kids: factual, kids: live-action.

Delhi HC orders removal of ‘Kala Hiran’ links in Salman Khan personality rights case

Mumbai, July 27: The Delhi High Court has directed the removal of social media links related to the upcoming film “Kala Hiran: The Battle for Legacy” from X, formerly Twitter, and YouTube.
The Delhi High Court has reprimanded the film’s producer, Amit Jani and told his counsel that he seemed to be drawing confidence from the fact that no order had been passed in the previous hearing.
The Delhi High Court further told producer Amit Jani, “You seem to think you are above the law. Things are only getting worse day by day. You cannot do this even to an ordinary citizen.”
However, Jani’s counsel argued, “This is only a teaser. How does it violate Salman Khan’s personality rights? I am not even taking his name.”
The counsel further submitted that the teaser does not contain any deepfake or AI-generated video.
“There is no protection over events or public performances,” the counsel argued.
Salman Khan’s counsel told the court, “In three out of the four cases, my client has been acquitted. In the fourth case, the sentence has been stayed. The teaser is attempting to turn an entire community against Salman Khan.”
Salman Khan had filed a petition before the Delhi High Court against the film Kala Hiran: The Battle for Legacy.
The teaser of the upcoming film was unveiled on July 17 and was brimming with
‘Dabangg’ and ‘Sikander’ references
The movie has been directed by Bharat S. Shrinet and produced by Amit Jani.
‘Kala Hiran: The Battle for Legacy’ is reportedly inspired by Salman Khan’s 1998 blackbuck poaching case and also portrays his alleged rivalry with gangster Lawrence Bishnoi.
Salman Khan’s blackbuck poaching case involves the illegal hunting of two endangered blackbucks in October 1998 during the filming of Hum Saath-Saath Hain near Jodhpur, Rajasthan.
