Richie
Mehta's
Delhi
Crime
became
the
first
Indian
origin
show
to
win
an
International
Emmy,
when
it
was
awarded
the
Best
Drama
Series
at
the
48th
edition
of
the
awards.
Delhi
Crime
was
a
retelling
of
the
horrific
2012
Delhi
gang
rape
incident,
starring
Shefali
Shah,
Rasika
Dugal,
Adil
Hussain,
Rajesh
Tailang
and
others.
Congratulatory
messages
for
the
show
makers
and
the
cast
poured
in
as
many
celebrities
expressed
their
pride
in
the
show
as
it
won
India's
first
Emmy.
Actor
Richa
Chadha
also
congratulated
the
team
of
Delhi
Crime
for
their
Emmy
win.
However,
a
netizen
questioned
how
something
about
the
terrible
incident
has
become
a
thing
of
pride
for
the
country.
"Congratulations
to
the
whole
cast
and
crew
of
#DelhiCrime
for
this
huge
international
recognition
and
making
India
proud
!

heart
is
happy," wrote
Richa
in
her
tweet.
When
a
netizen
responded,
"I
don't
understand
that
how
that
horrific
night
has
become
pride
moment
for
India.
Such
a
shame
to
celebrate
this
moment.
Delhi
ka
crime
aaj
congratulatory
moment
ban
Gaya
hai.
#ShameOnDelhiCrime."
Richa
replied,
"Actual
crime
ko
kam
karne
ke
liye
kuch
kiya
aapne
(What
have
you
done
to
lessen
the
actual
crime)?
Shame
on
rape
culture
bol
na,
why
the
show?
The
industry
is
celebrating
the
achievement
of
a
show
made
on
the
subject
that
won
big
internationally.
Fix
reality
first.
Many
rapes,
as
brutal
have
occurred.
You
can't
deny
reality."

Many
others
were
in
agreement
with
Richa
as
one
wrote,
"Ya
exactly,
the
show
is
just
accurately
reflecting
the
current
condition
of
the
state.
What's
wrong
in
showing
the
truth.
That's
the
only
way
things
will
get
better,
if
people
are
aware
of
the
truth
about
woman
safety
in
Delhi."
