National Award-winning Tamil film ‘Visaranai’ is India’s official entry for the Oscars 2017 in the ‘Best Foreign Language Film’ category.
“Visaranai was selected out of the 29 films that were in the race” Supran Sen, secretary general of Film Federation of India told reporters.
The film has been produced by National award winning actor Dhanush and directed by Vetrimaaran. It is based on the novel ‘Lock Up’ by M Chandrakumar.
‘Visaaranai #Anbum #amaithiyum malarathum (‘Let love and peace bloom’),’ Dinesh tweeted in Tamil.
Starring Dinesh Ravi, Anandhi and Aadukalam Murugadoss in the lead, the film deals with police brutality, corruption and loss of innocence in the face of injustice.
Earlier this year, ‘Visaranai’ won three National Awards in various categories including – Best Feature Film in Tamil, Best Supporting Actor for Samuthirakani and Best Editing for Kishore Te.
Wow! It deserves to be nominated. It was better than lagaan. Because lagaan was directed by a crap i mean ashutosh gowarikar. Mohenjodro sucks.
hard hitting movie
At least give a description on what it’s about
Great !!! People were predicting FAN to get nominate for Oscars. Let us see if it gets nominate for next OScars !!!!! Lol
I think Marathi film ‘SAIRAT’ should be India’s official entry for the Oscars. but no offence for Visaranai also.
Lets hope it will take.
sadly I will never be able to watch this movie unless it is dubbed in hindi.
nevertheless, best of luck
whatever this movie was
