Shefali Shah, renowned for her role in “Delhi Crime,” was nominated for Best Actress at the 51st International Emmy Awards but was ultimately defeated by Karla Souza from Mexico. At the New York awards ceremony, Shefali graced the red carpet in a captivating red saree adorned with intricate golden work. Complementing her attire with minimal makeup, she completed her look with a traditional golden statement necklace.
Competing in the Best Actress category, Shefali contended with nominees Connie Nielsen from Denmark and Billie Piper from the UK. “Delhi Crime,” directed by Tanuj Chopra, featured Shefali as DCP Vartika Chaturvedi, alongside lead actors Rajesh Tilang and Rasika Duggal. Shefali’s portrayal challenged gender norms in the male-dominated profession of DCP, embodying qualities of calmness, composure, and unwavering rationality.
The first season of “Delhi Crime” focused on the Delhi Police’s investigation into the infamous 2012 Delhi gangrape, marking it as the first Indian web series to clinch an International Emmy Award. Shefali Shah’s commendable performance and the show’s impactful narrative contributed to its recognition on the international stage.
