India and Oscar - Part 2

Yesterday, Film Federation of India announced the India's entry to OSCAR - Rang De Basanti. Prime theme is 'If the system has some problem or some weeds, Youths should not sit back and watch. They need to be more responsible and should try to change the system itself'. Surely a better option than 'Jeans' and 'Paheli'. But, as Prasad said, songs and other commercial elements will hinder the chances of getting into the top 5. Most of the songs were used perfectly by the director. He needs to trim the title song. Dialogues are a great plus for the movie. Also the BGM. We need to wait and watch.

Canada's entry is Deepa Mehta's Water, a movie about the misery underwent by Indian Widows in olden days.

One common factor is both has music by A R Rahman. (Though BGM of Water is by Mychael Danna)
