New Delhi: Marking another achievement of regional cinema, India’s official entry for the 95th Oscars, the Gujarati language feature film ‘The Chhello Show’ (The last show) has been short-listed for the Academy awards 2023 in the category of International Feature Film.
Similarly, SS Rajamouli’s superhit movie RRR’s song Naatu Naatu has also been shortlisted for the category of the best original song. Previously, RRR also made it to the nominations for the Golden Globes 2023. It would be competing in two categories- Best Original song (Natu Natu) and Best Non-English Film.
Next year’s Oscar Awards are all set to be held on 12th March in the Dolly theater in Los Angeles, US.
It is noteworthy that despite RRR’s failure to secure a nomination apart of the Best original song category, it still holds the chance to get nominated for Best Director and Best Picture category. If this happens it would be the first Indian film to do so.
The makers of the Chhelo Show expressed their gratitude towards the Film Federation of India for selecting the movie as the official entry of India to the 95th Academy awards.
