India’s three hopes from Oscars 2023
This time the Oscar Awards are going to be special in many ways. India has got three nominations this time. The song Naatu Naatu from the film RRR has been nominated in the Best Original Song category. While ‘All That Breathes’ has received nominations under the Best Documentary Feature and The Elephant Whispers under the Best Documentary Short Film category.
Out of this, there are high expectations from Naatu-Naatu Song as it has recently won the Golden Globe and Hollywood Critics Choice Awards.
