Best Actress award should have gone to someone else
by arnab bhattacharya on Feb 25, 2013 12:21 PM

Little disappointed with the best actress award as both Emanuelle Riva & Walis were phenomenal in brilliant Amour & Beasts of the southern Wild respectively... Both of them deserved it specially 85yrs old Riva..

Only Two

Only two awards for Ambani produced Lincoln!

Anil must be distraught with grief!

He spent millions of dollars on this movie and only got 2 awards which costs just $500 each to manufacture!

This is the worst transaction involving a bania in the entire history of banias!

B o o H o o

L 0 L !

It is always great to see when a bania loses so much money even after calculating and analyzing for every last cent!

What a silly comment! An award's worth is not in its weight or cost, but the merit it gives to the awarded movie. Lincoln has done fabulous business world wide, and Ambani is laughing all the way to the bank.

Stop making inane comments to hide your ignorance, just as you are hiding behind an English name to hide your Indian-ness, which you abhor obviously.

The other 8 movies nominated for best picture are also making money!

Anil was going to make that money anyway!

He could have made that money in every other way he can!

But why is a bania like Anil in Hollywood?

He was there to win an Oscar which he didn't!

And that is where the real loss is!

And like you said, Oscars reward the merit of the movies not their monetary collections!

So Ambani a bania lost and that is truly great!

Oscar or no Oscar.. Indians are proud to scale new heights.. When a company invests in a project it is not doing for awards. They do it with certain vision.. As far as Anil Ambani is concerned his company is spot on with their goals.

dear sunil, this is a foolish comment. Oscar award is for Hollywood movies. its not an international award committee as you think. do any of Hollywood movies gets our indian national award? a big NO !!!!.

Don't understand why there is so much obsession with Oscar for indian film makers. Oscar is only for hollywood film. All categories are for Hollywood films. Only one category is for foreign films. So only one foreign film can get Oscar each year. In fact in holywood also most of the films are steriotype Innnovative idea is absent there also. Though Life of Pie, Les misearables are definitely exception.
Indian films do get lot of prizes in other international and domestic festivals. Form cultural perspective there are lot of differences between hollywood and indian films. That difference is exihibited while making films. And that difference also has major role while the judges make their decision.
