This year the Indian Oscar thirst has been quenched. For more than some years now, India has been expecting an Oscar. The most notable Nomination was Lagaan some 5 years ago. But alas none received Oscar. This year, Slumdog Millionaire has got 8 Oscar award not to mention India’s own music maestro A.R.Rahman winning two (Yeah, I know one was shared, but what the heck…). This has been truly a phenomenal day for India and the Indian film Industry, not to mention the Indian Music Industry. Rahman had it coming for a long time. Both Freida and Patel have now bagged roles in new Hollywood movies. Freida with a better role though.
After having won just 2 Oscar till date, India added 3 more yesterday. This is truly great news. Well done India!
