98th Oscar Nominations: Ryan Coogler’s ‘Sinners’ Makes History While India’s ‘Homebound’ Snubbed!

Sadly, India's entry Homebound (directed by Neeraj Ghaywan and produced by Karan Johar) didn't make the cut for Best International Feature, even with stars like Ishaan Khatter and Janhvi Kapoor. On the bright side, Guillermo del Toro’s Frankenstein did really well in both the tech and big categories, and Timothée Chalamet’s Marty Supreme bagged 9 noms.
