Indian movies are truly a reflection of the Indian culture which might be too
hard to digest by the Americans. The fact is that we have a history,a
civilization to be remembered and cherished unlike them and well they
wouldn't really understand as to what the whole Indian culture or the Indian
cinema is all about. Again unlike english movies the indian movies are full of
dances and songs which are very unlikely to happen in real life situations.So
in fact that must be their point of not giving an Oscar to any of the Indian
movies.So then if such is the case why do the representatives of the
Indian cinema have to send these movies to the Oscars? A true achievement
of a cinema is when it is being accepted by the whole mass in India.Even if
we are receiving an Oscar will it bring "any" difference to the life of Indian
cinema.I doubt! I guess it is just a sheer waste of time sending these movies
to the oscars,not because they are bad but the people there are no good in
making sensible judgements.
