Diljit Dosanjh & Amar Singh Chamkila miss out on International Emmy Awards

India’s hopes at the International Emmy Awards were dashed on Monday as Diljit Dosanjh’s Amar Singh Chamkila failed to secure wins in either of its nominated categories.

Dosanjh had been nominated in the Best Actor category, while the Netflix film itself was shortlisted for Best TV Movie/Mini‑Series. Despite strong anticipation, both nominations went unrewarded, leaving India without a trophy at this year’s ceremony.

Directed by Imtiaz Ali, Amar Singh Chamkila is the official biopic of the late Punjabi singing sensation of the same name, who was shot in the 1980s. The film, starring Dosanjh alongside Parineeti Chopra, was widely praised for its authenticity and musical depth, and had been seen as a strong contender for international recognition.
