MUMBAI: JioHotstar has struck Emmy gold again. With over 200 nominations at the 77th Emmy Awards, the platform has proved its muscle as the go-to destination for high-calibre global content in India. From brooding anti-heroes and dysfunctional families to culinary showdowns and sharp-tongued satire, the streaming giant’s buffet of premium storytelling is turning heads and racking up accolades.

Leading the charge is The Penguin, waddling in with 24 nominations, including best limited series, and acting nods for Colin Farrell and Cristin Milioti. The show also scored big in directing and writing, making it the bird to beat. Sharing the spotlight is The White Lotus, another 24-time nominee, basking in glory with noms for best drama, and its ensemble cast featuring the likes of Walton Goggins, Carrie Coon, and Parker Posey.

On the comedy front, Hacks cracked 15 nominations, while culinary chaos came alive with The Bear roaring in with 13, featuring nods for Jeremy Allen White and Ayo Edebiri, plus a directing shoutout for the tear-jerker episode “Napkins”.

Not to be left behind, heavy hitters like The Last of Us, Paradise, The Pitt, and Andor brought the drama, with multiple nominations in lead and supporting categories. Comedy staples Abbott Elementary and Only Murders in the Building also made the cut, ensuring laughter wasn't left off the ballot.

In the limited series and unscripted corners, Dying for Sex and Top Chef brought spice and surprise, while Last Week Tonight with John Oliver reminded us that even satire can win serious awards.

From House of the Dragon to The Grammys, and even Pee-wee, JioHotstar’s growing trophy shelf reflects a shrewd curation of global storytelling with universal bite. As Emmy night looms, one thing’s clear: when it comes to world-class TV in India, this streamer isn’t just playing—it's winning.
