Several Indian films have carved a niche for themselves in the global arena. Some movies that have acquired a good name globally are Pather Panchali (the first Indian movie ever to garner international recognition), Lagaan (which was nominated for the Academy Award), Dil Se (felicitated at the International Film Festival Award at Berlin), Black Friday (this was also a nominee at the Locarno International Film Festival for Best Film), Devdas (received nomination for BAFTA award), Monsoon Wedding (was nominated for the BAFTA award), Gangs of Wasseypur (nominated four times at the Asia-Pacific Film Festival), Nayakan (made its way to the TIME list of ‘All-Time 100 Best Films’ ) etc.
