India’s To Kill A Tiger At The 2024 Oscars (Picture Credit: Facebook & Instagram)
India has once again got the chance to shine in the 2024 Oscars because of To Kill A Tiger, which has been nominated for the Best Documentary Feature. Last year, SS Rajamouli’s Rrr and Guneet Monga‘s The Elephant Whisperers made us proud. Delhi-born Nisha Pahuja has directed the film. It deals with a susceptible subject revolving around a sexually assaulted victim. Filmmaker Nisha hopes that this recognition gained by the film will help in bringing attention to the survivors of sexual violence.
