Akshay Kumar starrer Mission Raniganj goes to Oscars as independent entry

Akshay Kumar's latest release Mission Raniganj: The Great Bharat Rescue has been submitted by the makers as an independent entry for the Oscars. The film is based on a real-life incident that highlights the heroic act of Jaswant Singh Gill.

Hyderabad: The recently released film Mission Raniganj: The Great Bharat Rescue, starring Bollywood superstar Akshay Kumar in the lead role, may not have the right noise at the box office but the movie has definitely won the hearts of the audiences and received positive reviews from the netizens as well. Now, the makers of Mission Ranigang have submitted the film to the Oscars independently.

The Academy allows any nation to submit non-English movies to the Oscars in two methods. The first method is the official entry which is chosen by a body assigned by the Academy. It is the Film Federation of India in our country. The alternative method is an independent entry, which needs to fulfill certain theatrical release conditions in the US. Tovino Thomas' film 2018: Everyone Is A Hero, which is based on the Kerala floods, is India's official entry for the year.
