Now that Rehman has won a major international award (and an internationally acclaimed director has named a major Indian star in his acceptance speech), can we now please get over our colonial hangover and stop gushing?
Actually, can we do a reverse?
After all, the chances of Vishal Bhardwaj winning an Oscar is significantly higher than Danny Boyle winning a Filmfare!

He would already have one if Omkara had been sent to the Oscars, I feel pretty confident about that.
Sorry. Was gushing :-)
Awkwardly though, although all the faces on screen are all brown, the ones that are anticipated to be nominated for the Oscars will still be almost all white.
Apparently the colonial hangover is still very real !
Priya.
Pardon me, but your article is quite misleading. What's the connection of Vishal Bhardwaj with Slumdog??
