I think this craving has more to do with international recognition and prestige of the award.Ever wondered why all Indian film makers and actors crave for "Oscars"? Why are "National Awards", "Filmfare Awards" not good enough recognition of their works? Why do our TV and big screen celebrities forget their mother tongue while being interviewed on the red carpet? When was the last time a dark-brown skinned Indian who looked more Indian than Caucasian got a lead role in our films?
In movie business exposure is very important and winning an Oscar will give you way more exposure than a filmfare.
Oscar winning movies almost always have better production value than national award winning movies.Ergo, an Oscar is valued more than a filmfare.
OT Indians like Nadella have proved we can more than hold our own against anyone in the world.We just need a system which rewards merit, not stifle it.Until then more and more people like Nadella will continue to leave.
Our ancestors were taught that we are culturally and intellectually inferior to the Europeans. This information was passed on to the next generations repeatedly, and now it has become a part of our genes.
This was true a generation ago, but anymore.
We know what an Indian named Preet Bharara did to our Indian Diplomat don't we? Forget about what he did to an Indian for once. Let us discuss what kind of surname "Bharara" really is? Most probably he changed his surname to make it sound more American than Indian.
We seriously need to change the way we look at ourselves.
Why are you angry at him dude.For me, he is an american citizen doing his job.I may like him a little better because of his ethnicity, but at the end of the day, he is an American, not Indian.
Why are you expecting him to behave like he is Indian bcoz of his ethnicity.
He can change his name, surname whatever.Don't know thats relevant to the topic.
