AR Rehman: It has been 12 years since India won an Oscar, we should win one every year because India is packed with 1.3 billion, amazing, genius people. Every aspect of filmmaking we have here. Most of us don't even enter the competition, atleast they have done some promotion. That's how it works, if nobody knows your movie then no one is going to vote. I want them to win!

Rohit Khilnani: Hard to believe that #RRR didn’t get enough votes in other categories apart from Best Original Song. The buzz around it in Hollywood media did give everyone hope that this could be a good chance for India. Until next time! #NaatuNaatu continues to fly! #OscarNominations2023
