The search for India’s official Oscars 2024 submission has already started. According to a report, films like Gadar 2, Balagam, The Kerala Story by Vivek Agnihotri, Zwigato by Kapil Sharma, and Rocky Aur Rani Kii Prem Kahaani by Karan Johar are among those being evaluated for India’s official entry to the Academy Awards.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

According to a source, a 17-member committee led by director Girish Kasaravalli has been established and is now screening films in Chennai. This committee reportedly received over 22 submissions from all throughout India.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Some of the films that have been submitted to the Film Federation of India for Oscar consideration include Anant Mahadevan’s The Storyteller (Hindi), Music School (Hindi), Mrs Chatterjee vs. Norway (Hindi), 12th Fail (Hindi), Viduthalai Part 1 (Tamil), Ghoomer (Hindi), and Dasara (Telugu), as per reports.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Vaalvi (Marathi), Gadar 2 (Hindi), Ab Toh Sab Bhagwan Bharose (Hindi), and Baap Lyok (Marathi) could be added to the list. We have their application, but we’re awaiting payment, the insider continued.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

India’s official Oscars 2024 participation will likely be decided upon and announced later this month. The screening began yesterday and will last a week because there is a sizable pool of films to be seen before they make a decision. Next week, a declaration about India’s official entry is anticipated, the source said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Indian films won two Oscars earlier this year. At the 95th Academy Awards, the Naatu Naatu song from SS Rajamouli’s RRR won Best Original Song, and The Elephant Whisperers by Guneet Monga took home Best Documentary (Short Subject). Filmmakers are reportedly looking at a wide range of commercial, regional, as well as serious cinema from the country as a result of their new confidence as a result of this.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Last Film Show (Chhello Show), a Gujarati movie by Pan Nalin, was chosen as India’s official submission for the Best International Feature Film category at the 95th Academy Awards last year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Alongside celebrities like Emily Blunt, Samuel L. Jackson, Dwayne Johnson, Michael B. Jordan, Janelle Monae, Zoe Saldana, Jennifer Connelly, Riz Ahmed, and Melissa McCarthy, Deepika Padukone presented at the Oscars in 2023.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
