Act. the entire move reflects the image of India, this is the movie which shows poverty in India by an American. Earlier also so many gr8 movies were made from Indian director like. Mother India - Story about Zamindari system, implemented by western. Lagaan - story about "lagan - tax" in posed by western. Swades, Water and so many...... In short the movie which is directed by any Indian director (which reflects criticism over western people) is not appreciated in Oscar, only somehow manage to be listed... but finally no award....
But this time an American directed / shown the poverty of india and this movie is getting appreciation from all over..these 8 oscar awards are a kind of used shoes thrown by western to us.
do you think,in India, this movie will receive any national award?
