Vicky on Sardar Udham snub at Oscars nominations
Updated : October 29, 2021 03:13 PM ISTVicky Kaushal has been making it to the news almost every day now, and that's not just for his personal life. While the rumours around his wedding with Katrina Kaif are growing louder, he is being discussed even more for his recent release Sardar Udham. Vicky's performance has won hearts and one can't rave enough about how good he, and the film overall were. That might also be the reason why a lot of people were disappointed when Sardar Udham didn't become the official Indian selection for the Oscars. Now, Vicky Kaushal has opened up about it.

Talking to Mid Day, Vicky said, “Everybody has the right to their opinion. We have a jury [comprising] experts in cinema. They made a selection, and we have to respect that selection. I haven't seen the Tamil film, but Shoojitda has seen it and is gung-ho about it. I am sure it's the best decision taken for Indian cinema to be on a global platform. We should now root for the film that is selected, and hope that it brings us glory.”
Sardar Udham was dismissed by one of the jury members who thought the film depicted “our hatred towards the British.” However, other jury members clarified that it was the opinion of just one person and not what the jury, together, thought.
