Can we call the 95th Oscars the Asian awards? Quite a number of Asian artists were nominated for the acting categories, with actress Michelle Yeoh, 60 winning the first Asian Best Actress at the ceremony. Co-star, Her Everything Everywhere All at Once and former child star and refugee born in Vietnam, Ke Huy Quan— also took home the award for Best Supporting Actor. Also, India made history with its first nomination and win in the Best Song category for the suspender-snapping banger Naatu Naatu from the film RRR.
