One of the most beloved and prestigious awards, the Oscars, which honor and celebrate the courage and beauty of cinema, is almost here. Indians can watch the live streaming of the show on March 13 (IST) and it’s safe to say that the competition between the films is pretty tough.
However, amidst all the noise, we Indians are over excited as RRR’s song Naatu Naatu has been nominated in the Best Original Song category. Apart from this, Deepika Padukone will also be one of the presenters at the celebrity-studded award, followed by Priyanka Chopra’s star-studded appearance and Lauren Gottlieb’s performance in Naatu Naatu.

As excited as we are for India to fly high at the Oscars, here are some precious Hindi films that didn’t get an Oscar nomination this year. From The Kashmir Files to Chhello ShowTake a look!

Director Vivek Agnihotri had announced that The Kashmir Files has made it to the Oscars 2023 shortlist. However, the film missed out on the final nominations. Speaking about the same, Anupam Kher told Brut, “If now RRR won the Critics Choice Award and RRR won the Best Song at the Golden Globes, it’s the biggest feeling for Indian cinema. Why not celebrate? So there must obviously be some problem with The Kashmir Files. I am the first one to tweet that because I honestly felt “wow the song Naatu Naatu, the whole crowd is dancing on it”. Because until now any films that (the Western audience) recognized were about Indian poverty, for a foreigner, who has made a film, be it Richard Attenborough or Danny Boyle about Indians (but from a Western perspective). This is the first time that a Hindustani film or a Telugu film or whatever, an Indian film, has entered the mainstream of cinema.”

Gujarati director Pan Nalin’s Chhello Show (Last Film Show) did not earn a nomination in the Best International Feature category at the 95th Academy Awards.

The film was initially intended only for the Kannada-speaking audience, but after receiving such a positive response across India, the production team decided to dub the film in Telugu, Tamil, Malayalam and Hindi in quick succession.

One of the most loved and famous movies starring Mrunal Thakur and Dalquer Salmaan moved the audience to the core with its gripping story. A period romantic drama written and directed by Hanu Raghavapudi. Produced by Vyjayanthi Movies and Swapna Cinema, the film tells the story of Lt. Ram, an orphaned army officer serving on the Kashmir border, who receives anonymous love letters from Sita Mahalakshmi, after which Ram is on a mission to find her Sita and propose his lady. love.

Along with eight other Indian films, R Madhavan starrer Rocketry: The Nambi Effect was shortlisted for the 2023 Oscars. However, it missed the mark and was not nominated. Missile it had received a lot of love from critics and audiences.
