Interesting read, but honestly, as an Indian movie fan, I'm more curious about who's presenting at our own awards or if any Indian film got a nomination. The Oscars feel very distant sometimes.
Her routine of going to church and then having a quiet night with family sounds so grounding. In our fast-paced lives in Mumbai or Delhi, we often forget to have such simple, centering rituals. Good for her!
Respectfully, while it's a sweet personal detail, the article spends a lot of time on her pre-Oscar routine and the guest list, but very little on the actual nominees and the art being celebrated. The focus feels a bit misplaced.
"Sinners" with 16 nominations! That's the real headline for me. Want to know more about that film. Also, hope we get to see some of our Indian talent on that global stage one day. The international recognition for our cinema is growing.
The part about tucking the kids in and having a bath after the big event is so relatable for any working parent, celebrity or not. It's all about finding that balance. Wishing her a great time at the Oscars!
