It was a momentous night for India at the 95th Academy Awards since we took home two Oscars. Elephant Whisperers won the first award for Best Documentary Short Film, and RRR's Naatu Naatu won the second for Best Original Music. The moment is currently being celebrated by all the fans, and social media is already humming with pride. Many Bollywood stars, like Priyanka Chopra and Alia Bhatt, are also celebrating this significant victory for India.
The Oscar for Best Original Song went to SS Rajamouli's RRR for the song Naatu Naatu. Composer M.M. Keeravaani and Chandrabose appeared on stage to accept the honour. The following prize was given to Elephant Whisperers for Best Documentary Short Film, and Guneet Monga and Kartiki Gonsalves appeared on stage to accept it. As Guneet accepted the medal, we could see tears in her eyes. This movie was released in December of last year and centres on the endearing tale of a South Indian couple and an orphan elephant.
On the Instagram account, Priyanka Chopra in the first story she shared, had a clip of the makers Guneet Monga and Kartiki Gonsalves heading to the stage to receive the award. She posted, “Yaaaaaay! Goo @elephantwhisperermovie @guneetmonga @kartikigonsalves.” In the next clip she shared was team RRR winning for the song Naatu Naatu.
