`Rang De Basanti' to be India's entry for Oscar
Mumbai:
`Rang De Basanti,' Rakeysh Omprakash Mehra's take on modern day patriotism will be India's entry to the Oscar in the Best Foreign Film category.
The decision to send the Aamir Khan starrer to the Oscars was announced here by the Film Federation of India.
"This year, there were eight films in contention, including `Lage Raho Munnabhai,' `Krissh' and `Omkara,' but the jury chose `Rang De Basanti', " Film Federation of India member Suparn Sen said here.
"This year, it was a tough call because there were so many quality films in the running, `Rang De Basanti' stood out for its cinematic quality and script. It is a very contemporary film and overall we thought it would be a good choice. Now let us see what they [the Academy] think," chairman of the jury and noted filmmaker Basu Chatterjee told PTI here.
