MUMBAI: Colors Infinity wins big at the 73 Annual Golden Globe Awards with two of its shows. The critically acclaimed TV series of 2015, Mr. Robot, bagged the coveted title of best TV series drama against shows like Empire, Narcos, Outlander and the biggest competitor, Game of Thrones.

Contending with such popular series for the award makes the win all that much more of a coup for the new series, which has completed only its first season. On the other hand, Mozart tn the Jungle, which will soon air on the channel, picked up the best TV series musical or comedy.  

Mr. Robot, written and directed by Sam Esmail, gained a loyal fan base this year for its gritty depiction of the world of hacking. The show gained immense popularity in India through its instant premiere on Colors Infinity, a channel which is known to handpick the best of international content, bringing highly acclaimed never seen before series to India. The director accepted the award with a mix of quirk and grace, saying, "I got to thank the Hollywood foreign press. I mean, they gave the best drama series award to a show called Mr. Robot. And that took a lot of courage, so thank you."

In addition, Christian Slater also won the best performance by an actor in a supporting role in a series, limited series or motion picture made for television for his role in Mr. Robot, while Gael Garcia Bernal bagged the best performance by an actor in a television series musical or comedy for his role in Mozart in the Jungle.
