రణ్వీర్ సింగ్ ప్రధాన పాత్రలో నటించిన 'గల్లీబాయ్' చిత్రం ఆస్కార్ రేసు నుంచి తప్పుకుంది. అంతర్జాతీయ స్థాయిలో మొత్తం 10సినిమాలు ఎంపిక కాగా.. తదుపరి రౌండు ఓటింగ్ సమయంలో భారత్ నుంచి వెళ్లిన గల్లీబాయ్ అకాడమీ నామినేషన్కు ఎంపికవడంలో విఫలమైంది. 92వ ఆస్కార్ నామినేషన్ రేసులో ప్రస్తుతం 9 సినిమాలు ఉన్నాయి.

సౌత్ కొరియా దర్శకుడు బాంగ్ జోన్ తెరకెక్కించిన 'పారాసైట్' చిత్రం. స్పెయిన్కు చెందిన 'పెయిన్ అండ్ గ్లోరీ', చెక్ రిపబ్లిక్ నుంచి వచ్చిన 'ది పెయింటెడ్ బర్డ్', ఈస్టోనియాకు చెందిన 'ట్రూత్ అండ్ జస్టిస్', ఫ్రాన్స్ నుంచి 'లెస్ మిసరబుల్', హంగరీకి చెందిన 'దోస్ హూ రిమైన్డ్', నార్త్ మెకడోనియా నుంచి వచ్చిన 'హనీల్యాండ్', పోలాండ్కు చెందిన 'కార్పస్ క్రిస్టి', రష్యాకు చెందిన 'బీన్పోల్', సెనెగల్ నుంచి 'అట్లాంటికా' సినిమాలు నామినేషన్ బరిలో నిలిచాయి.

92వ అకాడమీ పురస్కారాల తుది నామినేషన్కు ఎంపికైన చిత్రాలను వచ్చే ఏడాది జనవరి 13న ప్రకటిస్తారు. ఫిబ్రవరి 9న లాస్ఏంజల్స్లోని హాలీవుడ్ & హైలాండ్ డాల్బీ థియేటర్లో అవార్డు ప్రదాన కార్యక్రమం నిర్వహిస్తారు.

'గల్లీబాయ్' చిత్రం ఆస్కార్కు నామినేట్ కాకపోవడం వల్ల బారత్కు మారోసారి నిరాశ ఎదురైంది. చివరగా భారత్ నుంచి 2001లో అశుతోష్ గోవారికర్ దర్శకత్వం వహించిన 'లగాన్' చిత్రం నామినేటైంది. ఇంతకుముందు 'మదర్ ఇండియా'(1958), 'సలాం బాంబే'(1989) చిత్రాలు ఆస్కార్కు నామినేటయ్యాయి.

ఇది చదవండి: అలా 'ఖైదీ'.. 'సాగర సంగమం' అయింది

STORYLINE:
Digging in for the long haul against Hong Kong's government, protesters are expanding their struggle from the streets to their wallets, weaponising their spending power to punish businesses they deem hostile to their cause.
The aim: to drive some firms under in the deepening recession gripping the crisis-hit city.
The Hong Kong protesters formed a line, patiently waiting to buy sweet milk and tea drinks from a store that advertised ardent support for their cause.
For quicker service, they could have quenched their thirsts at an adjacent store that also sells bubble tea. It had no customers.
It is exactly what the protesters intended.
Guiding the consumer choices of tech-savvy protesters are apps that increasingly are color-coding businesses — everything from dentistry clinics and toy stores to dumpling restaurants and sex shops — into two categories: yellow for protest-friendly, blue for suspected opponents.
"Blue! blue!" protesters yelled outside the bubble tea shop they shunned during a rally this month that marked the half-year milestone for their movement.
The protests started in June to voice opposition to now-withdrawn extradition legislation and have morphed into a full-blown fight to safeguard Hong Kong's freedoms, unique among China's cities.
Months of clashes with riot police who have fired 26,000 tear-gas and rubber-baton rounds and arrested over 6,100 people are radicalising legions of youths, upending the city's economy, and splitting families, work colleagues, friends and citizens into two entrenched camps.
Even employees of the supposedly "blue" bubble tea store, wearing face masks like many of the demonstrators, advised them not to shop there, saying the company wasn't sympathetic to the protest movement.
Protesters believe that by boycotting supposedly pro-establishment businesses, they can help shift the balance of power and wealth in the semi-autonomous Chinese territory.
Much of the city's $345 billion economy and political influence are concentrated in the hands of magnates and enterprises linked to or supportive of mainland China and its Communist Party-led government — the ultimate boss of Hong Kong leader Carrie Lam.
Protesters also say that shopping "yellow" is another way to make their voices heard in the absence of direct elections for government leaders.
Protesting with their wallets also enables people who can't always join street rallies, including those who fear being fired by pro-China employers, to otherwise contribute to the movement.
Before marching in the rally for the half-year milestone, accountant Nakata Law lined up for 15 minutes to support a snack shop that has donated to the protesters' cause, buying its steamed dumplings and gluey rice pancakes.
A poster on the Jar Gor eatery says: "Support Yellow. This store has been rated as a true Hong Konger merchant."
"The citizens' view is that if we do not have our own economic circle in Hong Kong, we cannot support our protests to keep carrying on," Law said.
Anecdotal evidence suggests protester boycotts are biting the bottom lines of some targeted businesses.
Passenger traffic on Hong Kong's Mass Transit Railway dropped by a quarter in October and November, with some protesters now refusing to use the network they suspect of colluding in government efforts to police the protests.
But some businesses finding themselves on the "blue" side of the city's hardening divide say they're being unfairly targeted.
Martin Khan says the Capital Cafe he runs with his brother on Hong Kong Island has lost half of its customers since accusations appeared online suggesting that they oppose the movement.
Khan says not only is that untrue, but that the "blue" tag apps have assigned to their eatery is based on unfounded suspicions of a supposed link between them and a singer, Alan Tam, who has spoken publicly in support of police.
Their cafe used to serve a toast, with melted cheese and shavings of black truffle, that they named after Tam, but that now been removed from the menu.
"Honestly, we have no connection with him," Khan said. "It's really not fair."
Although users say they regard the apps only as rough guides and not bibles, they're building the act of protest shopping into daily habits.
It is just one example of how the protest movement is altering the fabric of Hong Kong life and awakening citizens politically, even if it hasn't succeeded in making Beijing and Hong Kong leaders bend to calls for full democracy and other demands.
Franklin Lau, who works in public relations, says he now uses blue/yellow apps and other online pointers, including Facebook posts, on a regular basis.
He says he wants to "draw a line" between himself and any business that opposes the protests.
He also wants to avoid the stigma that protesters are attaching to those who still shop "blue."
"If you say, 'Well, I had a meal in a blue restaurant just now' ... you tend not to like share (that) news with your friend," Lau said.
"You don't want to have any association or connection with them."
