Is Priyanka Chopra upset that Rajkummar Rao's Newton beat Ventilator t

It was only recently that it was announced
that Rajkummar Rao starrer Newton is
India's official entry for Oscars. This news
came as a breath of fresh air for many,
however, if reports are to be believed our
desi girl, Priyanka Chopra, is not quite happy
with it.
According to a report in a leading daily,
Priyanka had high hopes of her Marathi
venture Ventilator making it to Oscars,
however, with Newton taking the spot, her
hopes reportedly got shattered.
Rajesh Mhapuskar, director of Ventilator told
the daily, "I guess, Priyanka must be even
more disappointed because she was always
ambitious about the film. Had it been
selected, she would have ensured that it
was the most-talked-about film in the run to
the Oscars, especially since she is already an
established name there. Ventilator was
always the favourite baby of their banner."
The filmmaker further revealed that the
Ventilator team was positive about making
it to the Oscars and were eagerly waiting for
the announcement. Recalling his
conversation with Priyanka Chopra's mother
Madhu Chopra, he said, "I told her not to
worry, assuring her that only the best film
would make it. We were a bit disappointed
when we learnt about the verdict, the next
day."
Ventilator was among the 26 entries in the
race to the Oscars.
