How much do you adapt from the original ‘Penoza’ and how much do you add in the Indian flavour? Quite honestly, I am not disappointed.įrom the Magazine Brave New World Under The Shadow Of The Pandemic The Four Horsemen Of Apocalypse Prison Diary: Uncertainty Keeps Political Prisoners Hanging Between Hope And Hopelessness Covid Nightmare: Time Of The Living Dead Meowdi: A Short Story by Perumal Murugan When you are in that hall, you realise how important it was just to be there. It was like representing India, we had our flags there. It was very special in itself that we were present in the auditorium. Knowing that 600 shows were shortlisted and that we were one of the top 4 shows in the world is very special. Can you believe the live experience and the memories that we made! The experience of actually being there is great in itself. Why should we think of it as a competition? Sometimes you feel that it would have been great if we were on zoom and we had that same feeling. Excerpts from the chat:Īre you upset that ‘Aarya’ didn’t win the Emmy Award? In a candid chat with Outlook, Madhvani speaks up about the Emmy nomination of ‘Aarya’, the success of the latest season of the show, the new-age OTT boom in India, and his regrets in his career after having worked in the entertainment industry for such a long time. Even though the show couldn’t eventually win, the filmmaker believes that the nomination in itself was a huge honour. His web series, ‘Aarya’ was nominated for the International Emmy Award this year. Whether it’s ‘Neerja’ or ‘Aarya’ or the recently released ‘Dhamaaka’ and ‘Aarya 2’, Madhvani has always tried to push boundaries with his stories. Filmmaker Ram Madhvani is known for some of the most critically acclaimed projects in Hindi cinema.
