The newest rumour is that Gangubai, which stars Alia Bhatt, is one among the few movies up for consideration as India’s official entry for this year’s Oscars.
The movie got standing ovations from the audience at the Cannes Film Festival as well as several screenings earlier this year in foreign film festivals.
With a $7.50 million global haul, it is one of the highest-grossing Indian movies ever released internationally.
Aside from Gangubai, there is a lot of discussion regarding SS Rajamouli’s historical drama RRR being a contender for the official entry to the Oscars.
