India's official entry for the 2023 Oscars in the Best International Film category is the Malayalam film "2018," directed by Jude Anthany Joseph. The movie portrays the devastating 2018 floods in Kerala and the impact of environmental issues. It was chosen by a jury led by Girish Kasaravalli, with unanimous approval. This selection process has faced controversy in the past, often oscillating between entertainment and arthouse cinema. India has never won the Best Foreign Language Film Oscar but has had nominations in the past. The film industry faces the challenge of competing with well-funded international productions during the Oscar campaign.
