The Oscar Hype
Posted on February 23rd, 2009 by Niket
With Slumdog Millionaire bagging a few awards at the Oscars, I predicted that it was only a matter of time before we start hearing terms like “worlds best” and “Oscar-beaters.”
I wasn’t far off from the target. Here is Rediff claiming that “India conquers the Oscars.” The best part, of course, is that the author realizes that Slumdog is “an independent British film” and that “it’s ridiculous for us to appropriate [it] as our own.”
