Ashvin Kumar's "Little Terrorist" has made it, where "Shwaas" failed, to the Oscars' nominations list, but in the Short Film category. Shot on a shoe-string budget and in five days, it has won prizes at several international festivals.

A film from the heart
In his own words, Sanjay Leela Bhansali `committed hara-kiri' with his debut "Khamoshi." But "Devdas" made up for it. With "Black," he enters a road not taken. He tells GOWRI RAMNARAYAN that aesthetically, it is his best film.
