thats a funny concept.. didn't know you had to enter your films in the contest to be considered..  you'd figure they'll pick from whtever released in the year..

anyhow, i tried watching the movie, i fell asleep.. kill me.. 😆😆

thats how film festivals work, but not sure about NA. they cost money to promote it. even short film and documentary.

^ya Peepli Live was too Indian, in it's nuances...humour and sensibilities...a DG has more gloabl appeal... Aamir Khan is experimenting just to get the oscar formula right!!!😛

is Peepli Live even oscar worthy?
 I know Udaan would've made it to nominations if they had sent it. Oscars are sucker for Coming of Age stories.

only if you follow the hindi news channels regularly, u'll be able to associate with its humour... theres one small subplot which touched me tho'!

peepli was not that great of a movie anyways... yes, it was based on a serious issue, but it just did not have the impact...
though, it's rather stupid of him for not entering the movie for the national awards...  seems as if his life's aim is to win an oscar... have not seen dhobi ghaat yet... but who knows... aamir is definitely trying the age old trial and error method...   ðŸ˜†ðŸ˜†

Maya is always singing peepli live's songs. No wonder she made a topic exclusively on Peepli Live.
Call me dumb, not intelligent enough, or path breaking super intelligent (because I break the path by being intelligent, even though I don'tlike aamir's movies) but I don't even like Aamir's movies names. Whats with peepli live, dhobi ghat and deli belli. too dry

Lensa, that's the norm for most Awards. [Of course excluding our Filmfare, Screen, Ghanta and such]
