Pan Nalin on Chhello Show : Exhibition sector underestimates Indian audiences, 2022 is big proof of that | Hollywood

Pan Nalin is ecstatic at his film, Chhelo Show (or The Last Film Show), which was also India’s official Oscars entry, being shortlisted finally. It’s a validation of forts for the filmmaker, whose film “We rejoiced when India announced Last Film Show as the entry to the 95th Oscars. Voting members of The Academy have given their validation by officially shortlisting Last Film Show (Chhello Show) in The Best International Films; it is indeed a massive milestone in the history of Indian Cinema. After all, we have broken a two-decade-long jinx!,” he beams. While the film continues to make noise internationally, most people in India took notice only after it was nominated to represent the country.

India can be very hard on movies which are without any stars, studios or streamers. The exhibition sector always underestimates Indian audiences, and the year 2022 has been big proof of that. I have always …
