Anupam Kher Film Makes 98th Academy Awards List

Anupam Kher's film, 'Tanvi The Great,' has achieved eligibility for the 98th Academy Awards, a significant milestone for the actor and director. Kher expressed his elation, stating that this recognition validates his belief in the power of good filmmaking to find its audience. He conveyed pride in showcasing a modern India, distinct from traditional portrayals of poverty or stereotypes, instead highlighting a nation that celebrates its grandeur.

Alongside his film's Oscar eligibility, Kher also shared his admiration for Rishabh Shetty's critically acclaimed movie, 'Kantara.' He recounted watching 'Kantara' in a theatre with his family and personally commending Shetty for his work. Kher sees both 'Tanvi The Great' and 'Kantara' as powerful examples of Indian cinema, representing varied narrative approaches.

This dual recognition underscores the growing global recognition of Indian films. While 'Tanvi The Great' aims to capture a modern Indian narrative on the international stage, 'Kantara' draws from rich traditional roots. Together, they exemplify the diverse and evolving landscape of storytelling emerging from India.
