"What can I say?" Mira could barely contain her joy. "My entire Namesake paltan (clan) is already in LA, and I'm also heading there. I'm just so ecstatic that our producers Fox-Searchlight are doing an Academy campaign.
This can only mean that The Namesake is very much in people's minds and hearts months after it was released."
The highly -lauded film is expected to get at least a nomination each for Mira and her leading lady Tabu in the best-director and best-actress categories.
Mira has her fingers crossed. "Let's see what happens. The reality is that it's too early to say anything right now.We can only keep our fingers crossed."
