Laapataa Ladies India's official entry for Oscars : 

Laapataa Ladies has been chosen as India's official entry for Oscars 2025 for the best film in the foreign language category. The film was competing with Sandeep Reddy Vanga and Ranbir Kapoor's blockbuster "Animal," but the juries preferred the woman-oriented drama as their choice.

The official notification by The Film Federation of India reads as below:

"Indian women are a strange mixture of submission and dominance. Well-defined, powerful characters in one world, a LAAPATAA LADIES (Hindi) captures this diversity perfectly, though in a semi-idyllic world and in a tongue-in-cheek way. It shows you that women can happily desire to be homemakers as well as rebel and be entrepreneurially inclined. A story that can simultaneously be seen as one that needs change and one that can bring about change. Lapataa Ladies (Hindi) is a film that can engage, entertain, and make sense not just to women in India but universally as well."

Directed by Kiran Rao, Laapataa Ladies is produced by Kiran Rao and Aamir Khan's Aamir Khan productions and Jyoti Deshpande. The film stars Nitanshi Goel, Pratibha Ranta, Sparsh Shrivastava, Chhaya Kadam, and Ravi Kishan in the main roles. It was released in cinemas in March 2024 and did "below-average" business at the box office.
