Priyanka Chopra & Guneet Monga’s ‘Anuja’ Nominated For Oscars 2025

Mumbai: Guneet Monga’s ‘Anuja’, which has Priyanka Chopra as its executive producer, has been nominated in the Live Action Short Film category for Oscars 2025.

Helmed by Adam J Graves and produced by Suchitra Mattai, the film had earlier bagged the Live Action Short award at the 2024 Holly Shorts Film Festival.

‘Anuja’ revolves around a nine-year-old girl who works in a back-alley garment factory with her elder sister Palak. The film focuses on the journey of the nine-year-old, as she faces a life-altering decision that could change her family’s future.

Graves described the film as “a heartfelt tribute to the resilience and untold stories of working children.”

Anuja was created in partnership with the Salaam Baalak Trust (SBT), a nonprofit organisation founded by Mira Nair’s family.

The film, with a compelling narrative, powerful performances, and social impact, is currently streaming on Netflix.
