And The Winner Is...'PAHELI'
The selection of Amol Palekar's "Paheli" as India's official entry to the coveted Oscar award has evoked mixed reactions.
The Shah Rukh Khan starrer was chosen over 14 films including "Swades", "Veer-Zara", "Black", "Parineeta" and "Mangal Pandey" - each, their fans say, worthy of the honour. The debate, then, is whether "Paheli" deserved the selection.
It's an irony that we have many and many movies this year which deserved to get nominated for Academy awards - from Regional to off-beat cinema. The question is...is it the Khan charisma and influence which is working in Bollywood with the selection commitee or is it ???Here are the industry reactions.
