The nominations for the 97th Annual Academy Awards were announced by Bowen Yang and Rachel Sennott.
India has reason to celebrate as Anuja, backed by Priyanka Chopra and Guneet Monga, gets nominated in the Best Live Action Short Film category. Shahana Goswami-starrer Santosh, however, didn't make it.
Emilia Pérez and The Brutalist score the maximum nods.
Here's a quick look.
