' Dam999 ' may be a fiasco at the box office, but the movie has been nominated for various award functions. After gaining recognition worldwide and being selected for Oscar Awards 2012 under 5 categories viz., 'Best Picture', 'Original Score' and three 'Original Soundtrack', the movie has now been selected for the Golden Rooster Awards.
Golden Rooster Awards is generally referred to as China's Academy Awards. ' Dam999 ' has been suggested for this prestigious National Film Award event of China by the renowned Israelian director Dan Wolman, who is the prominent Jury of a number of International festivals.
At the China's greatest annual film event, Sohan Roy 's ' Dam999 ' will be competing under 12 categories. The event will take place in Shaoxing City at the end of September.
Director Sohan Roy said, "I was worried if China would get to watch ' Dam999 ' owing to the theme of the movie but this selection has indeed left me speechless. I would like to thank Director Dan Wolman & the Festival committee for this surprise."
