‘Laapataa Ladies’ Selected for Oscars 2025

Laapataa Ladies, the directorial debut of Kiran Rao, is India’s official Oscar 2025 submission. The Film Federation of India, the highest authority in charge of choosing the nation’s official submission for the 97th Academy Awards, declared Laapataa Ladies to be India’s entry during a recent function held in Chennai.

Key parts in the film, which is directed by Kiran Rao and produced by Aamir Khan, go to Pratibha Ranta, Sparsh Srivastava, and Nitanshi Goel.

What Kiran Rao said about the film

As the Film Federation of India reviewed the films on the list for Oscars entry, Kiran Rao said to PTI, “My dream would be fulfilled if it was, if it would go (to Oscars). But it’s a process, and I’m hoping it’ll (Laapataa Ladies) be considered. I’m sure the best film will go, whoever they choose in the scheme of things.”

Talking about the film being screened at the Supreme Court of India by CJI, Kiran said, “It’s the vision and foresight of our chief justice to screen a film like this for staff and for justices to start conversations on gender parity, gender equality, women’s empowerment. The fact that he watched the film and reached out to us, we couldn’t believe it. We were so grateful and excited.”

“It really gave us a chance to take this film to a wider consciousness and audience because the Supreme Court and the chief justice himself have in some way endorsed the film or put their goodwill into promoting the film in their circle. It really made or did a lot for our film, even for audiences as they felt that, ‘wow, there’s merit in watching this film’. It really helped our film even get out further,” Kiran Rao further said as she was overwhelmed by the positive response that her film received.
