SO SORRY @venkateshmaha25 #CareOfKancharapalem , your hard work and talent is NOT ELIGIBLE to be recognized at the #indiannationalfilmawards because it was Produced by me- a US citizen although of Indian origin ...I failed you 😔

It’s not you @paruchurimd, it’s the outdated rules and regulations of our country. I don’t understand why an Indian film, made by an Indian director, in India, acted by Indians and for Indian audience is not eligible for Indian National Awards. @DFF_India time for change. https://t.co/5xdD9PFjzk

@DFF_India your eligibility and submission criteria are illogical. Even @RanaDaggubati or @SureshProdns being the Presenters of our film can not apply?! #Annoyed #Disappointed . Why @makeinindia ?

Dear Visionary Leaders @ktrtrs @ncbn @narendramodi , #CareOfKancharapalem was made in India, by Indians, with Indians, released in India and appreciated by Indians, yet is not eligible for #nationalfilmawards. If this is the reason for ineligibility, Why @makeinindia ?? -Producer pic.twitter.com/zFqrgDbnu9

Dear @KTRTRS ji, my off'r has spoken to @paruchurimd
— Rajyavardhan Rathore (@Ra_THORe) January 12, 2019
These are NATIONAL FILM AWARDS & require producer or at least one co-producer to b Indian
My off'r has guided @Paruchurimd on the possibility of her application fr same
She can also apply fr Int competition section IFFI 2019 https://t.co/OQA8cK9hRD
#CareofKancharapalem with @RanaDaggubati @SureshProdns has been allowed to apply to #nationalfilmawards. Thank you @Ra_THORe Sir and @KTRTRS Sir for your expedient response. I hope we will continue to have discussions about permanently amending this rule.. #LoveTeluguCinema https://t.co/Ci1iPo27Eh
