Nawazuddin said: “For an artist, there is no bigger reward than the audience giving you their love and appreciation for your work and I am glad to see people here in Dubai giving me so much love. To receive an award among such a vibrant audience here in Dubai is heartwarming to say the least.”

The actor has also been nominated at Emmy International Awards for ‘Serious Men’, directed by Sudhir Mishra that released on Netflix last year.
