“Ramayana: Rise of a Legend,” starring Ranbir Kapoor, is submitted for consideration for the 99th Academy Awards as part of India’s wider push for international recognition. Times of India and NDTV report that the film joins a growing set of Indian titles seeking a place in the Academy Awards race.
In the same coverage, Times of India says “Gondhal” is India’s official entry for the Oscars, while another film, “Angh,” qualifies through the Toronto International Film Festival (TIFF). NDTV articles emphasise that an official submission by India does not prevent other Indian films from independently applying for Academy Awards consideration.
Across the outlets, the core facts are consistent: “Ramayana: Rise of a Legend” is in the Oscars consideration process for the 99th Academy Awards, and India’s official entry is treated as separate from independent applications by other filmmakers.
