Bollywood star Deepika Padukone, who recently welcomed a baby girl, is already back to work, gracing the ramp and diving into new projects. However, her latest comments about India’s history with the Oscars have created a stir across the nation. While some support her viewpoint, others have criticized her remarks, making it a trending topic across social media.

The actress recently voiced her disappointment, stating that India has been "robbed of the Oscars" too many times, despite its vast cinematic brilliance and talent pool. According to Deepika, numerous deserving films and artists have been overlooked over the years, leading to missed opportunities on the global stage.

Deepika specifically recalled the historic Oscar moment of RRR, expressing how emotional she felt when the film won. "India has been robbed of the Oscars many times. Many, many deserving movies, I feel, have been snubbed. Whether it's movies or talent... But I remember being in the audience when they announced RRR, and I got emotional. Outside of being an Indian, I had nothing to do with that movie, but that was a huge, huge moment. That felt very, very personal," she said in a viral video.

As her statement continues to fuel discussions, fans and industry experts are debating whether India truly faces bias at the Oscars or if the country needs better global promotion for its films. With Deepika back in action and unafraid to speak her mind, it remains to be seen how the industry and audiences will respond to her bold take on India's cinematic journey on the world stage.
