Rang De Basanti fails Golden Globe Test

'Rang De Basanti' is India's official entry to the Oscars this year. But there's a setback for the film as it failed to make it to the nominations list of the 64th Golden Globe. The five best foreign language films include 'Apocalypso' (US), 'Letters from Iwo Jima' (US/ Japan), 'The Lives of Others' (Germany), 'Pan's Labyrinth' (Mexico) and Volver (Spain).

Rakeysh Mehra who received the best director's trophy at the recently held GIFA Awards ('RDB' took home several more trophies) tried his best at the Golden Globe. But it seems his best was not good enough. The Oscar nominations will be announced in January 2007. So, who should be roped in to make that final bid'Aamir Khan, of course. Let's see if the temperamental superstar agrees to push a film that was made because of his approval to be a part of it.
