Kantara gets 2 Oscar qualifications, Rishabh Shetty says he’s ‘overjoyed’

The Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences on Monday announced the list of 301 films that are eligible for the 95th Academy Awards. Hombale films and filmmaker-actor Rishab Shetty expressed their excitement after Kantara received two Oscar qualifications: Best Pictures and Best Actor.

The list includes movies that can officially compete in various categories but merely featuring in the list does not guarantee that the film will advance in the final nominations of the Academy Awards, to be announced on January 24.
