NEW DELHI: The Film Federation of India today invited entries for shortlisting India’s entry to the Oscars 2016.

In a press release issued in Mumbai, the FFI said it had once again been entrusted with the responsibility of selecting India’s representative film in the ‘Best Foreign Language Film’ category at the Academy Awards.

Two of the important criterions are that the film should be commercially released in a theatre within the eligibility period of 1 October 2014 and 30 September 2015 and that it should have a minimum run of seven consecutive days.

Thus, films up for release till 25 September (the last Friday) will be eligible.
