Its the second time that Aamir Khan is experiencing this excitement. Earlier, his first production Lagaan was sent as the official entry for Oscars and had even managed to make a place in the first five.
It lost the Oscars to No Man's Land. This year Aamir's satire on farmer suicide, Peepli Live is being sent as India's official entry for Oscars.
Thrilled to bits, Aamir says, "I am really happy to hear that the film has been chosen to represent India at the Oscars.
My congratulations to Anusha Rizvi, (the director of the film) and the entire team, we are all very happy. It is always a special honour for me to represent India on a world platform, and I would like to thank the FFI (Film Federation of India) for considering us worthy."
Aamir Khan had personally gone to USA to promote his film just before the Oscars when Lagaan was nominated. We expect him to do the same this year too. And hope that it works too.
