(15:20) If this was a hollywood film it would be nominated for an Oscar. But when has Bollywood ever sent the right movie to the Oscars?
Fine to read you again, Grumpy
So, I guess, you also like to watch Rick and Korbin?
The Oscars is a lot about lobbying...and doing a certain circuit of 'small' festivals.
Allegedly Rajamouli spent a quite big amount of crores to get at least a song-Oscar...and RRR wasn't even sent as Indian contribution to the only foreign films Oscar as Rajamouli contested as a foreign contribution on his own.
SRK's Paheli was sent from India to the Oscars (certainly because they left Swades out the year before)... SRK was already known a bit in the US film circuit (not as much as he is now), so he would have to spend a lot of time there to lobby for the film.
He did not (for various reasons):
