According to reports, the 76th BAFTA Awards will take place at the Royal Festival Hall in London in February 2023. Any film released during the qualifying period in the UK is reportedly eligible for the award, regardless of its country of origin or language. ‘Gangubai Kathiawadi’ will not just compete for the Best Foreign Film category (officially called Best Film Not in the English Language) but also for other major categories.
Alia Bhatt, who is currently celebrating the birth of her baby girl, is also going to compete for the Best Actress award with other stars. ‘Gangubai Kathiawadi’ is another addition to the number of foreign-language films that are aiming to cross over into mainstream races.
Meanwhile, SS Rajamouli’s ‘RRR’, which also stars Alia Bhatt, is also eyeing to make it big at the Oscars. As per reports, it is a frontrunner to bag a few nominations as well, something no Indian feature film has ever done.
