Kiran Rao says Payal Kapadia’s ‘All We Imagine As Light’ has the potential to win an Oscar for Best Picture
Kiran Rao’s film ‘Laapataa Ladies’ is India’s official entry for the Oscars, winning over Payal Kapadia’s ‘All We Imagine As Light’. Rao underscores the underrepresentation of women directors, especially from South Asia. Despite controversy over the FFI’s choice, this year sees three Indian films competing for Oscars, marking a hopeful shift for female filmmakers.
