Bollywood and Oscars

Oscars have often eluded Bollywood videos in Very best Overseas motion picture category. But it will not be honest to say, motion pictures in India are not globe class or not deserving sufficient to win awards.

The Bollywood film business is rich in it's individual atmosphere. By setting I imply Bollywood is common amongst Indians all more than the planet. India becoming the largest producers of videos has never ever been lucky at Oscars.

Consider this, India has created 82 submissions, 1 every yr of course given that 1957. Out of which only three have been nominated. And no movie as however have won any Oscars. Now don't believe about Slumdog Millionaire, it is British motion picture. The 3 nominated films for greatest Best Foreign Video are -

one. Mother India (1957) directed by Mehboob Khan

2. Salaam Bombay! (1988) directed by Mira Nair

3. Lagaan (2004) directed by Ashutosh Gowariker

The determine is very weak and practically an insult to Indian Cinema. This means given that 50 many years Bollywood has not arrive up with 1 very good video that can be referred as the finest international film ? Which is so not genuine. There are a number of motives for this.

Most importantly, Indian motion pictures are distinctive and in no part of the earth you will see similarity. Indian movies feature cultural features, religious comprehending and way of life which only Indians can understand. That is why Bollywood can relate to Hollywood but not vice versa.

Secondly, International audience fail to realize Indian values such as why folks live in joint families? Why are there no kissing scenes? And why there are tunes after each and every 50 percent an hour? Tunes and actors dancing in film is an alien idea to Hollywood. So how can members of Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences recognize lyrics of Hindi tracks in the movies?

Bollywood video has not got a Oscar since of poor or I really should say no knowledge of Indian Cinema.Read more:bollywood
