One of the biggest prestigious award ceremonies in the cinema world is Oscar, for which very little time is left for its telecast. The Academy Awards (Oscars) will be held on Sunday, March 12 at the Dolby Theater in Los Angeles, America. This time’s Oscar is also very special for India because the South Indian blockbuster film ‘RRR’ is also included in the Oscar race. In such a situation, all Indians are eagerly waiting for it. Along with this, there is another change which is going to happen for the first time in 62 years.
No matter what the award show is, the red carpet has great importance in it. Stars are seen shining on this red carpet. That’s why red carpet is also associated with glamour, but do you know that for the first time after 62 years, the color of the carpet at the Oscars will not be red. Why is this happening, what is the reason, we tell you all this.
The carpet will be of this color, not red.
It is every star’s dream to walk on the red carpet of the Oscar Awards ceremony, but the color of the red carpet will be different this time. Red carpet has been rolled out every time since 1961 i.e. the 33rd Oscar Awards. But now it has been decided to change this tradition. Actually, the Academy of Motion Pictures, which hosts the Oscars, has chosen bright white color i.e. ‘Champagne’ this time instead of red.
Oscar award ceremony will be held on March 12
The Oscar Awards ceremony is scheduled to take place in Los Angeles on March 12, while in India the ceremony will be seen from the morning of the 13th. Oscar host Jimmy Kimmel has launched this carpet at the Dolby Theater in Hollywood.
Deepika Padukone is the award presenter
Bollywood actress Deepika Padukone will be the award presenter at the 95th Oscar Awards show. Along with them, Emily Blunt, Samuel L. Jackson, Jennifer Connelly, Dwayne Johnson, Michael B. Jordan, Janelle Monae, Zoe Saldana and Melissa McCarthy will also give awards to the winners. Deepika is the third Indian woman to present the Oscar Award.
