The 95th Academy Awards nominations has been announced. Given that we have not one, but three Oscar contenders this year, India has a fair stake in the Academy Awards.
Weeks after taking home the Golden Globe, the 'RRR' song 'Naatu Naatu' has been nominated for an Oscar in 2023 for Best Original Song. 'All That Breathes', a documentary by Shaunak Sen, has been nominated for the Best Documentary Oscar at the 2023 Academy Awards after receiving a BAFTA 2023 nomination. Also, the Netflix documentary 'The Elephant Whisperers' from India has been nominated for Best Documentary Short.
