walt disney
since the film "reflected contemporary indian reality and had cinematic excellence", it was chosen as india's official entry for the 79th academy awards despite stiff competition from films such as "krrish", "omkara", "kabhi alvida naa kehna" and "lage raho munna bhai". while discussing if the selection committee's choice was correct, critics felt that the academy members could have better related with "omkara", an adaptation of shakespeare's play "othello". despite these qualms and mehra's belief that his film did not stand a chance at the oscars, the efforts to publicise the film in the united states began earnestly. music composer a. r. rahman performed several concerts across the east coast to promote the film. besides his efforts, producer screwvala planned to use resources and expertise from his partners in 20th century fox and walt disney pictures for organising its publicity efforts. when the nominations in the foreign film category did not feature this film, it sparked off debates on whether the film should have been india's entry for the oscars. in one such debate on a television channel that involved screwvala, the selection committee was questioned about its knowledge of the requisite artistic criteria for such award ceremonies. while one outcome of the debate was on how "omkara" would have been a better choice, the other discussed the west-centric sensibilities of the academy members. however, results from a simultaneously conducted sms poll indicated that 62 percent felt that the film was the right choice for the oscars.
