In a disappointing turn for India, ‘Anuja’, a coming-of-age short film produced by Priyanka Chopra Jonas and Guneet Monga, lost the Best Live Action Short award to ‘I’m Not a Robot’.
Produced by Priyanka Chopra Jonas, Guneet Monga, and Mindy Kaling, ‘Anuja’ was a New Delhi-set short film that told the story of a gifted nine-year-old girl faced with a life-altering decision between education and factory work. Despite strong backing and a touching narrative, it lost to ‘I’m Not a Robot’, a Dutch sci-fi short directed by Victoria Warmerdam.
Other nominees in the Best Live Action Short Film category included ‘A Lien’, ‘The Last Ranger’, and ‘The Man Who Could Not Remain Silent’.
The ceremony honored Hollywood icon Gene Hackman, who passed away four days before the event, with a heartfelt tribute from Morgan Freeman. Meanwhile, Halle Berry and Adrien Brody recreated their infamous 2003 Oscars kiss on the red carpet, sending social media into a frenzy.
Host Conan O’Brien also won hearts in India when he greeted viewers with a Hindi phrase: “Namaskar. Nashte ke saath Oscar kar rahe hai aap log”, meaning “Greetings! Hope you’re watching the Oscars with your breakfast.”
The night was a perfect blend of glitz, emotions, and groundbreaking achievements, setting the stage for another exciting year in Hollywood.
