Kanguva’s Shocking Entry in the Oscars Race

In an unexpected turn of events, Kanguva, the pan-Indian film directed by Siruthai Siva and starring Suriya, has made it to the list of eligible films for nomination in the Best Picture category at the Oscars. The news has left many stunned, considering the film’s dismal performance at the box office and the wave of criticism it received for its content.

Despite being a highly anticipated project, Kanguva faced backlash from audiences and netizens alike, earning the tag of one of the biggest disasters of the year. The negative reception extended even to OTT platforms, where the film failed to garner any significant appreciation. Its inclusion in the Oscars list has sparked widespread disbelief.

In contrast, Aadu Jeevitham, starring Prithviraj Sukumaran, also made the eligibility list but has been widely regarded as a deserving contender. The film earned acclaim for its hard-hitting narrative, passionate filmmaking, and success both critically and commercially. While Aadu Jeevitham’s inclusion is celebrated, Kanguva’s presence has become a point of contention and debate among cinephiles.
