Suriya's Soorarai Pottru entering Oscar race is no BIG NEWS ???

The tweet that 2D Entertainment put out - We are elated and Thrilled Sooraraipottru joins Oscars has been dubbed as no big feat by a section of the media. The figuring of the film in list of films shortlisted for Best Feature film category is said to be because the film taking the paid service and not that it passed the Oscar scrutiny. Though the report suggests that it has to cross several rounds before entering nominations.

Is this not the start for race for Oscars ???.  The route may be different but it has atleast started the trot.
