The versatile Anuj Saxena (doctor, actor, producer, restaurateur and entrepreneur) has added another feather to his cap! He has been invited by The International Academy of Television Arts & Sciences to participate as a juror. As a juror, Anuj will be judging the category of Best Performance by an Actor for the Final Round of Judging of the 2006 International Emmy Awards. He will be judging eight entries for this category. "It's an honour to be a part of Emmys. I mean there cannot be anything bigger than this as far as international television goes. I mean if you compare the world over there would be so many deserving candidates. Also on a personal level it will also be a learning experience to watch shows from across the world," says an elated Anuj. Anuj has been busy with setting up his production housesay Maverick. "Currently, I am trying to work on a few soaps, with some off beat storylines. I think in the Indian context we have to still scale up to international standards in terms of production values. Though here there has been an attempt to adopt newer concepts and telenovellas, finally we have to adapt the stories and scripts to suit our Indian sensibilities," says Anuj. He adds: "I hope to definitely benefit from being a juror for the Emmys, both as an actor and as a producer. After all, the attempt is to make our programming worldclass. " The jury panel consists of television, producers, directors, performers, and executives from around the world to honour the best in international television. This is the first time that Anuj will be judging the finals of the International Emmys. which are known worldwide for honoring excellence in programming produced outside of the United States. The 34th International Emmy® Awards Gala will take place on 20 November 2006 in New York City. In addition, the Academy holds a television festival the weekend prior to the Gala.
