 Why did the Mexican throw his wife off the bridge? Why did the Mexican throw his wife off the bridge? Tequila. If you don't get that joke, Tequila comes from Mexico. Josh! Hey, welcome back to our YouTube Direct, this is Gordon. And it rhymes with to kill her. Sort of. Jokes are better when you have to explain them. Yep. I'm Corbin, your humble host, with me as always is this hideous guy named Rick. You are... Post-Toasty. Yeah, you're the host. I'm the Post-Toasty. And together, we are the Host-Post-Toasties. Today we have a... This is a video of our non-bar, A.R. Roman, reminiscing about his Oscar. The Oscars. YouTube page actually posted this just yesterday. And so it kind of goes in behind the scenes of... And the Oscars are upon us. And India's about to win their first Oscar for a film from India. I'm wondering... Because they haven't said anything publicly about who's going to be involved in the song. Bet Money. I know Ram Charan is here. The only reason NTR is not is because he had a death in the family. And so I think he's coming on the 5th. Yeah. They're going to be in the number. Why wouldn't they? Because I know they've said the music director himself has said there's going to be dancing from Hollywood. And obviously musicians from India. They have not specified Junior NTR and Ram Charan. I would absolutely keep that under wraps so that everybody in the house is wondering. And then when they come out it'll make it that much more exciting. Speaking of which, Ram Charan was on KTLA. I saw that on his page on Instagram. That's why I said I know he's here. There was a screening last night of our... Right, a big one. My friend of mine did go to for her first time. Like a thousand seat please. For her first time seeing and she was like that was awesome. I bet. Best buddy film of all time. Our non-bar is talking and reminiscing about his Oscar experience and his speech. Which I don't remember because it was so long ago. And we did not know of him. We loved Jai Ho obviously. Everybody still remembers that. Valerie just the other night. Anything I've seen in India. She hasn't seen a lot. I remember I couldn't stop listening to Jai Ho. It's a good song. But by an Indian. Correct. Dost, non-bar of ours. I went to all these amazing dinners before the Oscars. And my daddy asked me, you want to get it? But still was unsure. And the whole of India was cheering. I felt like a gladiator. The Oscar goes to A.R. Rachman. Is that Gavron? Rachman? I was like, is this real? Or is this a dream? And people's, I had to perform next. I was like, A.R. Don't react. Just be like Zen mode. Don't mess up your performance. My speech was not prepared. I said, I'll go by the flow. I would say, thank you and go off. But when I was sitting there, I was watching Daniela Pickle speak in Spanish. Thank you so much. I was like, oh, that's cool. I wanted to say something in Tamil which says, means all perfect praises belongs to God alone. It's from a holy book. It's a promise from God. Thank you. That if you remember in the happy times, I'll remember in the sad times. I remember in my life and I wanted to remember the God who's come into all of this. And the Oscar goes to A.R. Rachman and Gulzar Vijay Ho. The second time when I announced my name for the best song. The essence of the film which is about optimism and the power of hope in our lives. I have said in the speech that the essence of the film is optimism and hope because the world was going through that depression, economic depression and some of the millennia in a way that anybody who sees it would feel high. All my life, I've had a choice of hate and love. I chose love and I'm here. God bless. Some people are misinterpreted that statement over some religion and this and that which is not true. This is the state of every artist in the world and that's what makes them the artists they want to give and love is about giving, not taking. After I got the Oscars from my hanged baggage and the security when I was getting to India, they said, can you wait? And there were almost like 100 people in the security check so the officer took these two as a look what I have and everybody went oh my god. Please don't touch my Oscars seriously. Get your hands off my Oscars. What's crazy is obviously 1000% watched this Oscar that year. I was rooting for Slumdog. I remember it. The fact that we and probably nobody in Hollywood for the most part or people watching really knew who A.R. Rahman was. Had no clue. I had no clue who any of them were. Yeah. Imagine if that had film come out now. Obviously it can. Your front, right? To have this big Hollywood film get all this recognition, have so many people that we love in it how magical that would be to have that kind of collaboration between the two industries and obviously it's looked down upon now with a lot of Indians just because they think it's perpetuating the poverty poverty porn is I think what they call it you can say what you want obviously. It was a good film. It was very good film. Deserving of what it came out. And I get it. I think a lot of that comes from the fact that a lot of Indians are like I don't want you to see that when there's so many other amazing films that you could have seen and now you think a lot of people think that when people see that that's all they think India is is Slums. Especially hindsight that it was an anomaly. It was a singular moment and then Hollywood just forgot Indian cinema. And so the only thing until truly until RRR was this stereotype of oh, they made a movie depicting what all Indian movies and all India's like and we're going to celebrate it and then let's just move on and that's the only memory that a lot of Americans still have in their head about Indian cinema and about India perpetuating the stuff that we put in the I think it was the 500 celebration song about there's way more to India than just the stereotypes of tandoori chicken and Gandhi and that everybody's riding on top of trains. They do. And that their movies are just the stereotypical Bollywood. And thankfully because one of the best things about technology and the internet is how much closer we've all come and been exposed to so many I mean, I'm just this past week. I watched a Dammel film a Hindi film a German film a South Korean reality show I love it. I love it. Let us know what other videos we can react to obviously we are heavily rooting for India to get its first Oscar for India. Once again, for those of you who don't know what I'm talking about I'm aware that Sachit Rai has got an honorary Oscar I'm aware that the costume director of Gandhi got an Oscar but that's once again, not an Indian film Ahriman, not an Indian film An honorary is, yes it's an Oscar but it's not like a normal Oscar Correct. It's one like, oh we should have given you one a long time back Here's one. No, about honoring a particular work of art that year by your peers. He's an honorary Oscar Dick Van Dyke He does, he would be an Egot Yeah, he really the only thing he's missing is an Oscar It'd be really beautiful for them to do a lifetime achievement Oscar for Dick Van Dyke and then he would be an Egot Let us know what other videos we can react to down below
