Sure, it took a British director to make a movie on an "Indian subject' to get Oscars for Indian technicians who have been doing superior work for decades (i.e. Gulzar, A R Rahman, Pookutty).
Ndio, imembidi Mkurungenzi wa filamu kutoka Uingereza kutengeneza filamu yenye 'maudhui ya India' ili kuwapatia tuzo ya Oscar mafundi wa Kihindi ambao wamekuwa wakifanya kazi nzuri kwa miongo mingi (yaani akina Gulzar, A R Rahman, Pookutty).
