London, May 14 (IBNS): Actor Anupam Kher could not win the Best Supporting Actor Award at Baftas here.
He lost the race to Irish actor Brian F. O'Byrne.
However, the actor said he felt 'humbled' that he was nominated for it.
"Here is the speech I didn’t get to deliver on stage tonight at the @BAFTA Awards. I was not announced the winner among the four nominees for d #BestSupportingActor award. But I feel humbled & honoured. That small town Hindi medium boy from Shimla has come a long way. Jai Hind," Kher tweeted.
Kher, who is a popular actor in India, 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".
The award was won by O'Byrne for "Little Boy Blue".
