What do you think could be the reason for the bollywood movies not getting any oscars. I think most of the nominations deserve an award but being ignored by the oscar committee. Most of them are being nominated for just name sake. What do you think about it?

bollywood..? Oscar..?
lol... come on.. stop dreaming.
always about forbidden love between rich and poor, heroes never dies, how could they win competing with multimillion hi-tech hollywood movies?

without Oscar..Bollywood still glamor and prestige after Hollywood..and maybe someday..Bollywood can challenge the status high class for hollywood

iniesta · 12-16-07, 11:52 PM

I also agree with iniesta that the bollywood films winning oscar could be a big joke. As I feel that none of the films that has been nominated to oscar does not even deserve to be in the nomination list, from india. All are nothing but hype and politics. There are even far better films made in bollywood which are not sent to oscar because of various reasons. Even Lagaan which missed it by a whisker does not deserve as it is just a masala film with no real value.

Well some of the movies like Lagaan i think really deserved Oscar. It is one of the best movies in modern India i would say and more over this is a original concept movie.

I would say that Bollywood does not deserves a Oscar right now because most of their movies are copied or if not then they do not have any good story. I think first of all they should imporove themselves in this.

in my view only thing where we are lagging behind is in the promotion..stories which are nominated for oscars are worth winning..but some times we don't promote those the way they should be promoted..i don't find any flaw in story or acting..

I think that main reason for Bollywood not getting a Oscar award is that they lack more the quality of original movies which is a very important thing to make a movie which is liked by every one.

Maybe India has not won any Oscar till now but i am sure that some day they would make to it as our Bollywood industry is not that much back as compared to other movies industries.
