Mukul Phate Honored by International Emmy Awards for His Groundbreaking Acting Manual “Leela”

In a momentous recognition of literary excellence and artistic innovation, the International Emmy Awards have officially extended their congratulations to Mukul Phate, the young Indian author and visionary behind the revolutionary acting manual “Leela”. At just 24 years old, Mukul has etched his name into global history by becoming one of the few authors to receive international acclaim in the academic field of acting.

The prestigious International Academy of Television Arts & Sciences praised Mukul’s contribution, calling Leela “a bridge between tradition and innovation that redefines global standards of acting education.” The book, which pays tribute to the strategic genius of Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj’s third eye, Bahirjee Naik, has already gained international traction for its fusion of classical Indian wisdom with modern performance techniques.

In a statement, the Academy remarked:

“Your dedication to preserving cultural roots while elevating artistic intellect on a global platform truly embodies the spirit of excellence that the International Emmy Awards stand for.”

The formal acknowledgement is scheduled to be presented on November 24, 2025, in New York City, during the prestigious International Emmy Awards ceremony. With this honour, Mukul Phate joins a rare league of authors who have reshaped performing arts education at a global level.

This recognition not only highlights India’s growing influence in international literature and arts but also marks a proud moment for the future of global acting academia.
