India recommends ‘Chennai Express’ for Oscar Awards

According to Bollywood sources, India decided to submit 2013's most successful Hindi Movie 'Chennai Express' for Oscar Awards nomination. The Film Federation of India (FFI) has taken this decision unanimously.

"FFI appointed committee decided immediately to send Chennai Express for Academy Awards next year for a nomination in the category 'Best Foreign Language Film'," said the source.

Shahrukh Khan and Deepika Padukone starrer Chennai Express was the biggest hit of the year and earned 200 crore rupees in its first week. However, according to source the movie's content, directorial value and the success were not the reasons for its selection by FFI committee.

"Actually, India has never won any award in this category despite sending best of best movies. So this time FFI decided that it will send a movie which would torture and annoy the Oscar Awards selection panel. At least we can irritate them this time by make them yawn and tolerate torture of 2 and half hours," said the source.

Movie's director Rohit Shetty said that he was the happiest guys in the world after FFI decided to send Chennai Express for Academy Awards.

"This is biggest success of my life. Originally I thought my movie would never be sent to Oscar Awards but thank god this time I made most hopeless movies of lifetime of Bollywood and on the same time FFI decided to send most worthless movie of Indian cinema to Oscar nomination," said Rohit Shetty.
