Not just RRR, two other Indian films nominated for Oscars 2023

HYDERABAD: For the first time ever, India creates history as it gets three nominations in various categories for the 95th Academy Awards 2023. “RRR” continues its roar and makes it to the “Best Original Song” category for its shaking number “Naatu Naatu.” Shaunak Sen’s “All That Breathes” is nominated for “Best Documentary Feature Film” and Karthik Gonsalves and Guneet Monga’s “The Elephant Whisperers” got nominated for “Best Documentary Short Film”.

This is the highest number of nominations India has ever received for the Oscars. Indians have been waiting to watch the announcement event quite eagerly. Many Telugu people turned to Youtube to watch this event and expressed their joy at the nomination of “Naatu Naatu”.

There is also an element of disappointment as “RRR” didn’t make it to the best director and best picture categories although it was quite anticipated.

Even “Chello Show”, India’s official entry to the Oscars wasn’t nominated. Another Asian favorite “Joyland” from Pakistan also didn’t make it to the final list. “Everything Everywhere All At Once” has created history by getting the maximum nominations this year.

The Oscars 2023 are going to be held on the 13th of March 2023. Jimmy Kimmel, is returning to host the Oscars.
