As Kangana Ranaut’s film ‘Emergency’ has headed to OTT, two months after its theatrical release, viewers want her to submit the movie for Oscars shortlist from India. However, the idea is not intriguing enough for the film’s star and director.
Responding to a tweet, which read, “#EmergencyOnNetflix should go for the Oscars from India. Kangana, what a film,” Ranaut wrote, “But America wouldn’t like to acknowledge its real face, how they bully suppress and arm-twist developing nations. It’s been exposed in #Emergency.”
“They can keep their silly Oscar. We have National Awards,” she asserted.
For the unversed, ‘Emergency’ premiered on the streaming giant Netflix this Friday and by the end of the weekend, the movie was trending at number 1 on the portal.
