It’s that time of the year again when the Oscars are happening, and this year the 95th Academy Awards are all the more special for two Indian projects that have won the award. Yes, Naatu Naatu from Jr NTR, Ramcharan, and SS Rajamouli‘s RRR has won in the best original song category. At the same time, Guneet Monga and Kartiki Gonsalves‘s The Elephant Whisperers bagged the Best Documentary Short Film award. Well, another extraordinary feat this year was Deepika Padukone being one of the award’s presenters. In fact, I am also very amazed to see the impressive list of winners where Everything Everywhere All At Once has won the majority of awards. But before that…
Here’s a glimpse of Deepika at the Oscars…
