A few decades later, today, you stand tall, not needing anyone's validation, as the fifth largest economy. This award is for you, India and all the Indians here! We are few, but we're enough. This is for you, India. In your history, I find my stories in your strength and your tenacity, I find my grit to my motherland. I am bringing home your Emmy.”
