  • International Journal of Multidisciplinary Approach And
    International Journal of Multidisciplinary Approach and Studies ISSN NO:: 2348 – 537X Indian cinema’s future at Oscars Paromita Gupta DSJ, University of Delhi, Delhi, India ABSTRACT Cinema is the reflection of our society. It acts as a mirror by reflecting the reality of our societies. Just like any other professional field, cinema is also bestowed with the recognition for who or what is the best among all. This comes in various formats including the pan world accepted and celebrated Academy Awards or Oscars. As per 2018 report by Statista, over 5,823 films were produced by leading film markets including India and China. From 1948 till 2019, Italy has topped the chart by winning 11 best International Feature Film, followed by France with 9 wins, while Mexico and South Korea became the newest member with Roma in 2018 and Parasite in 2019 respectively. Indian cinema is the world's largest film industry in terms of film production, with an annual output of 1,813 feature films as of 2018, and Bollywood is its largest film producer, with 364 Hindi films produced annually as of 2017. KEYWORDS: Oscars, Indian cinema at world level, Parallel Cinema, Bollywood, Film Federation on India INTRODUCTION The Oscars was first held in 1929, and is also the oldest of the four major annual American entertainment awards. The Awards has faced backlash for lack of diversity which is based on the statistics since 1929. To honour the foreign language films, the Special Achievement/Honorary Award was introduced in 1947. These awards, however, were not handed out on a regular basis (no award was given in 1953), and were not competitive since there were no nominees but simply one winning film per year.
