Payal Kapadia’s All We Imagine As Light won many accolades overseas, including the prestigious Grand Prix at the 77th Cannes Film Festival last year, however, recently it lost out the Golden Globe award for the Best Foreign Language Film to Emilia Perez. Payal was also nominated for Best Director (Motion Picture) but the award was ultimately bagged by Brady Corbet for The Brutalist.
Payal has now reacted to the loss. Taking the defeat positively, the director shared a mirror selfie with her producers in her Instagram stories Thomas Hakim, Julien Graff, and Ranabir Das, on her Instagram Stories and wrote, “We didn’t win anything but had so much fun.”
She also thanked her costume designer Payal Khandwala for her outfit and her stylist Indrakshi Pattanaik.
