Anupam Kher lost the Best Supporting Actor Award at Baftas here to Irish actor Brian F. O’Byrne, but the Indian actor is proud of his nomination and said there is always a next time. He was nominated for the Virgin TV British Academy Television Awards in 2018 for his work in the adaptation of Sathnam Sanghera’s memoir “The Boy with the Topknot”, a TV movie.
The award went to O’Byrne for “Little Boy Blue” at the ceremony here on Sunday.
“Thank you Bafta for the Best Supporting Actor nomination for ‘The Boy With The Topknot’. It’s a great honour for me, for a Hindi medium educated boy from a small town in India whose father was a clerk in the forest department.
“It’s a fantastic achievement to be nominated amongst some of the top actors in the world,” Anupam said in a video that he posted on Twitter after the ceremony.
