At the 95th Academy Awards, India made history by taking home two Oscars—one for Best Original Song and the other for Best Documentary Short. Guneet’s time was cut short, which garnered a lot of criticism online, while MM Keeravani accepted the prize on stage and thanked director SS Rajamouli. In a recent interview, MM Keeravani disclosed that Guneet Monga was later admitted to the hospital for breathing.
MM Keeravani said that Guneet Monga was admitted to the hospital after winning the Oscar.
In order to accept her Oscar for Best Documentary Short Film for The Elephant Whispers, Guneet shortened her acceptance speech on stage. “My face showed shock. All I wanted to say was how significant it is because this is India’s first Oscar for a production made in India. I couldn’t have traveled this far and not be heard, so my heart began to beat rapidly. The institution is being criticized by Western media because I was unable to speak there. People are furious with me for not having a chance to deliver my speech. There are tweets and videos online from people who are disappointed I didn’t get to speak. India’s moment was now, far from me “the Bombay Times, she said. Guneet shared the Oscar with Karthik Gonsalves, the director of The Elephant Whispers.
In a recent interview with Galta Plus, Keeravani first discusses his pleasure at the Oscar triumph before revealing how Guneet Monga was admitted to the hospital shortly after receiving the honor. She stated: “My prayers were heard by the universe, and it materialized. I wasn’t overly thrilled by this. Yet, it wasn’t as exhilarating as previous award winner Guneet Monga, so you didn’t gasp.” He was not given a chance to speak before he began breathing, and as a result, he was also sent to the hospital.”
Guneet made the decision to go to the Golden Temple after she returned to India following her Oscar victory. Vikas Khanna, a chef and filmmaker, was with him. In addition, he posted a video of Guneet’s visit to Instagram with the caption, “once you have honored your ancestors. We are grateful to Guneet for demonstrating the strength of love and humility. Your glory endures forever.
