Oscar Buzz: Why Ranveer Singh’s ‘Dhurandhar’ Didn’t Make the Cut
- What’s Inside: Why ‘Dhurandhar’ lost out to ‘Gondhal’ for India’s Oscar spot. A jury member spills the tea!
So, we just saw some interesting news about India’s pick for the Oscars. You know how everyone was talking about Ranveer Singh’s film ‘Dhurandhar’? Well, it turns out, it wasn’t chosen.
The film that’s heading to the Oscars is called ‘Gondhal’. And get this, a jury member, Vivek Vaswani, said ‘Dhurandhar’ only got four votes. Ouch.
He straight up said it wasn’t ‘Oscar material’. That’s a pretty direct comment. We wonder what kind of visual storytelling or narrative ‘Gondhal’ has that the jury felt was more fitting for the big stage. Sometimes films just have that certain spark, that unique aesthetic, you know?
It’s always tough when you have high hopes for something. We’re sure Ranveer and the ‘Dhurandhar’ team are disappointed. But hey, that’s how the cookie crumbles sometimes in the world of film awards.
Our Take
Look, we love seeing Indian films get international recognition. While it’s a bummer that ‘Dhurandhar’ didn’t get the nod, the jury’s decision is their decision. We’re excited to see what ‘Gondhal’ brings to the table. It’s all about the art and the story, right?
