Aamir Khan recently said that if his production Laapataa Ladies wins an Academy Award, Indians will go mad as everyone has been dying to win it for a long time. He also said that winning an Oscar will prove to be good for the Kiran Rao directorial as it will be able to reach more people across the globe.
In an interview with BBC News India, Aamir said, “I am not quite sure how seriously to take a competition. But I would be really happy. It would create tremendous opportunity for the film to be seen by a lot more people because when a film wins an Oscar or Academy award, then people from around the world want to see what it’s like. So it opens a huge window of opportunity for a larger audience for a film."
