It seems that Aamir Khan and Kiran Rao have started their Oscar campaign for Laapataa Ladies.
For starters, they have renamed the film Lost Ladies and unveiled a new poster.
Next, they headed to Vikas Khanna's swanky restaurant Bungalow in New York and made a splash there.
It's always nice to discuss movies with some mouth-watering food.
A line on the new poster reads, 'Sometimes you have to lose your way to find yourself.'
The social media post elaborates: 'The wait is over! Presenting the official poster for Lost Ladies -- a glimpse into the wild, heartfelt journey of Phool and Jaya! Huge shoutout to Jahan Singh Bakshi and Prashanth C for bringing our story to life with this stunning design. Get ready to be swept away!'
Sharing pictures, Khanna, seen here with Jyoti Deshpande, President, media and content business, RIL, writes, 'Jab dil se Dua atti hai, 'Jeet lo duniya.' This is exactly what I felt yesterday when we were hosting Oscar Campaigning event of Lost Ladies (Laapataa Ladies) at Bungalow.'
He adds, 'Kiran you are a true artist to create such an iconic film. Aamir Sir, you are the KINDEST. The way you engaged & loved & respected Mysha was everything to me. (See pic 2 & 6) Jyoti your genuineness & everygy to support South Asian Arts is inspiring. Your journey defines an Indian value system of 'always there for you like a family'. Prabal you are an inspiration to millions. You lift so many of us as you rise. Shine forever.'
Aamir acknowledges young chef Mysha and her magic in the kitchen.
Enjoying gol gappas.
