[icernet] Oscar tragedy for Devdas

[Arul Selvan]

Last year, the unlikely 11 of Lagaan made it to the Oscar finals but lost
the match. This year, India’s official entry into the Oscar Foreign Film
category, Devdas, lost out in the nomination shortlist itself

In the foreign film category, Sanjay Leela Bhansali's Rs. 38-crore
blockbuster "Devdas" starring Shahrukh Khan, Madhuri Dixit, Aishwarya Rai
and Jackie Shroff in the lead, lost out to the "Crime of Father Amaro" from
Mexico, "Hero" from China, "Man without a Past" from Finland, "Nowhere in
Africa" from Germany and "Zus and Zo" from The Netherlands.
