Laapataa Ladies, a compelling narrative set in 2001 in the fictional Nirmal Pradesh, has been nominated as India's official entry for the Oscars 2025. Directed by Kiran Rao and produced by Aamir Khan under Aamir Khan Productions’ banner, the film features a talented cast including Nitanshi Goel, Pratibha Ranta, and Sparsh Shrivastav. ‘Laapataa Ladies’ tells the story of Deepak, a farmer who mistakenly leaves a train with another person’s bride, leading to a poignant exploration of love, identity, and societal norms.
This film’s nomination for the Oscars marks yet another significant contribution to the world of cinema by Aamir Khan Productions. Following the remarkable legacies of ‘Lagaan’ and ‘Taare Zameen Par’, ‘Laapataa Ladies’ showcases the production house's commitment to innovative storytelling and its support for diverse narratives. With a focus on compelling character journeys and social themes, the film continues the tradition of thought-provoking cinema that resonates with audiences around the world.
In Aamir Khan's own words, he aims for his production house to be "a platform for new talent," emphasizing his desire to produce more films and provide opportunities for emerging voices in cinema. In a recent conversation, Aamir said, “ I want to make four to six films in a year so that I can give new talent a chance, and this way I can be associated with more stories as a producer.” This vision aligns perfectly with ‘Laapataa Ladies’, which highlights fresh talent while addressing meaningful social issues. Aamir Khan is currently gearing up for the theatrical release of ‘Sitaare Zameen Par’, set to hit theaters on December 25, starring Aamir Khan alongside Genelia Deshmukh.
