Overwhelmed by the national as well as international response to the film Lage Raho Munnabhai and perhaps not very happy that his film was not selected as India's official entry for the Oscars, producer Vidhu Vinod Chopra has decided to enter his film for the Oscars as an independent entry in the Oscar race.

The fact that Rang De Basanti has been chosen as the official Indian entry to the Oscars has not dampened the spirits of the makers of Lage Raho Munnabhai.

Worldwide support

Chopra has gone on record to state that, “The record number of fan mails that we have received worldwide have supported our belief and inspired us to go ahead with sending the film across to the Academy as an independent entry. We strongly believe that Lage Raho Munnabhai is a film that should be screened at all international film festivals."

Apparently his decision has also been further strengthened by an invitation extended by the University of Southern California (USC) for a special screening of Lage Raho Munnabhai for thier students of cinema.

Ken Naz of Eros International from the US will be preparing the applications to seek entry for the film.
