According to the latest Bollywood news, Sohan Roy’s Dam 999 might have known in the country for its controversy, but that has not stopped the film from entering into the Oscar race.
It is being said to media that three songs from the film, ‘Dakkanaga Dugu Dugu’, ‘Dam 999 Theme Song’ and ‘Mujhe Chhod Ke’ are among the 39 short listed songs for the prestigious Oscars.
However, the final selection will be announced on January 24 next year.
In the meantime, the film released allover the country last month and was banned in Tamil Nadu for supposedly taking a pro-Kerala stand in the Mullaperiyar dam row.
In addition, in 2009 Indian music genius A.R. Rahman has won two Oscar awards for Best Original score and Best Original Song for Slumdog Millionaire, directed by Danny Boyle.
Now, it would be quite interesting to see that whether the controversial Dam 999 bring the Oscars back to India again? Let’s wait and watch!
