Karan Johar's SRK-Kajol starrer My Name Is Khan features on the reminder list of productions eligible for the 83rd Academy Awards amongst other names including Agora, Edge of Darkness and Fair Game. Karan says, "MNIK started off as a movement and it's heartening to hear that today it's in the broad list of films eligible to be in the running in all categories.
I am deeply honoured that MNIK has that kind on acceptance level on a global platform and it's the only Indian film to enter this list. Whether it will be selected or not depends on many factors including luck but it's wonderful to know that people all over the world have loved MNIK so much that they felt it should be eligible enough to be an entry."
