India’s 2026 Oscar entry 'Homebound' missed the shortlist, continuing its streak without a nomination.

Neeraj Ghaywan's "Homebound," India's 2026 Oscar submission, was not selected for the Best International Feature Film shortlist. Ishaan Khatter, Vishal Jethwa, and Janhvi Kapoor starred in the Karan Johar-produced movie, which was India's entry for the year. Johar posted a quick, heartfelt message on Instagram Stories, thanking everyone for their support and expressing gratitude for the result. This year continues a recent trend in which India's film submission has not received a nomination.
