Hello
A day after 'Laapataa Ladies' was announced as India's official entry, makers of 'Swatantrya Veer Savarkar' claimed their film was the country's submission.
The move to choose Kiran Rao's 'Laapataa Ladies' sidelining the Cannes' second favourite 'All We Imagine As Light,' in India has met with a lot of skepticism from several corners.
To the surprise of many, however, the Film Federation of India (FFI) selected Kiran Rao’s acclaimed Laapataa Ladies as the country’s submission for the Oscars.
The Hindi film, a light-hearted satire on patriarchy, was chosen from a list of 29 films.
The two filmmakers had been involved in a heated exchange of words.
Vikash Nowlakha's handheld camera work, coupled with motivated lighting, immerses viewers in the confusion unfolding throughout the movie.
According to Kiran, despite the external labels, partnering with Aamir in Aamir Khan Productions has been a positive experience.
Sandeep had also asked Kiran to take a look at her former husband and producer Aamir Khan's body of work before making any comments about his films.
The filmmaker also defended films like 'Bahubaali 2' and 'Kabir Singh', rejecting claims that they promote misogyny and stalking.
