"I came to know that Peepli Live is out of Oscars. I am of course sad about it. But, I am happy that we represented India and we were one among the worlds best 60 films which were sent to Oscars.

The actor maintained that he doesnt make films for the Oscars.

I dont make them for Oscars, neither for any other awards. I make films for the audience. I value whatever response I get from the audience, critics and media. Oscars, Cannes, Berlin Festival - they are like platforms where international audience come to know about our films. If you win there, more people watch them, said Aamir.

T! he film failed to make it in the list of nine movies selected for the next next round of voting in the Foreign Language Film category for the 83rd Academy Awards.

Shahid Kapoor reject an offer to do Priyanka Chopra's '7 Khoon Maaf'

Shahid Kapoor reject an offer to do Priyanka Chopra's '7 Khoon Maaf': When Priyanka Chopra has seven co-stars in her forthcoming film 7 Khoon Maaf, the question arises why isnt Shahid Kapoor, who shares an amazing onscreen chemistry with her and is reportedly her offscreen love, one of them? Well because he refused, revealed filmmaker Vishal Bhardwaj.

"Shahid refused to do the film. That time he was preparing for the role in his fathers film and for that he needed a particular get up, so he didnt have time to get a new get up for this film, Bhardwaj told reporters at an event in the Radio City office here.

7 Khoon Maaf is based on Ruskin Bonds short story, Susannas Seven Husbands. The seven male leads in the thriller include Naseeruddin Shah as the oldest husband, John Abraham and Neil Nitin Mukesh, Irrfan Khan, Annu Kapoor, Naseeruddin Shahs youngest son Vivaan Shah as the youngest husband and Russian actor Aleksandr Dyachenko.

The director also revealed that Priyanka was his original choice for the role.

Priyanka was my original choice for the role. She is the finest actor of her generation right now. Whe I worked with her in 'Kaminey, I realised how under-utilised she is. She has so much talent in her. As a director I had so much trust on her that I felt that no one else can essay this role as brilliantly as she would do, said Bhardwaj.

The film is slated for a Feb 18 release.
