‘Archaic dinosaurs’: Social media not impressed as FFI jury head calls ‘All We Imagine as Light’ ‘technically poor’
The Film Federation of India (FFI) has faced sharp criticism for choosing Laapataa Ladies as India’s official Oscar entry. Bollywood veteran Hansal Mehta was one of the strong voices in favour of All We Imagine as Light, directed by Payal Kapadia, as a much better choice. Laapataa Ladies, directed by Kiran Rao, is now out of the Oscar 2025 competition.
FFI President Ravi Kottarakara had earlier told Hindustan Times that All We Imagine as Light was ‘a European film taking place in India’.

“The jury said that they were watching a European film taking place in India, not an Indian film taking place in India,” he told HT.
In an interview with HT, FFI jury head Jahnu Barua has now defended the selection of Laapataa Ladies.
“The jury felt that the films which have gone to the Oscars in the last few years lacked Indian-ness. A film needs to represent the nation. We felt that Laapataa Ladies had all the right elements and presented the social chaos we go through brilliantly,” he said.
