Oscars Nominations 2023: Why 'RRR' is the best shot for Indian Cinema in the last decade

HYDERABAD: The Oscar nominations arrive bright and early Tuesday morning, and The Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences and ABC announced the 95th Oscars® would take place on Sunday, March 12, 2023. As 'RRR' is marching forward with a strong buzz, the anticipation built around it is quite on top of the charts, not only in India but across the globe.

Here's the list of the films that were "Official Submissions" from our country in the last decade

Pebbles (2021)

Jallikattu (2020)

Gully Boy (2019)

Village Rockstars (2018)

Newton (2017)

Visaranai (2016)

Court (2015)

Liar's Dice (2014)

The Good Road (2013)

Barfi! (2012)

Adaminte Makan Abu (2011)

Among the list, more than five films scored the nomination only through their strong content. But none of them recorded an award as 'RRR' did.

Well, it might not be easy, but it's not rocket science to understand the reason behind it. 'The Oscars' are nothing more than a private film event that is being conducted and celebrated by the top richest - famous personalities across the globe.

Yes. More like a 'Filmfare', to put it in layman's words. Since the participation is of the elite class, you need to belong to the class to put up with all the formalities, hosting & giving a show to them, which actually costs huge bucks.

'RRR' was made on a budget of 560 CR, and both the leads possess & exhibit abnormal strengths, which is actually a fond narration of Hollywood. These are the two factors that actually make 'RRR' stand out from all the submissions of the past decade.

It is also important to note that 'Chhello Show' is the official submission of 2023, while 'RRR' was submitted independently, showing how prepared they are for the campaign.

Although one might not say impossible, there are very slight chances for 'RRR' at The Oscars.
