Jai Bhim is a true-life story of Justice K Chandru (played by Suriya) and his fight to protect Dalit lives, which was loved unanimously by the critics as well as the audiences. The top-notch performances of Suriya, Lijomol, Manikandan, Prakash Raj and every other actor makes it stupendous. This Tamil film has been rated top on IMDb, beating Hollywood classics like The Shawshank Redemption and The Godfather.
In November 2021, the film had officially entered the Golden Globes 2022 as a nomination under the category of ‘Best Non-English Language Film’. The team of Jai Bhim have added another feather to their cap as a scene from the film along with the director’s story narrative has been featured on the official YouTube channel of the Oscars. It is the first Indian film to be featured on the Oscars official Youtuebe channel.
After much speculation, the biggest moment of awards season has arrived, as the announcement for the 94th Academy Awards will be held today, on February 8. The mega event’s nominations will take place in Los Angeles and it will be live-streamed globally at 5:18 a.m. Pacific time (6:48 PM in India).
