Talking to Hindustan Times, he said, ‘We could not reach the final nominations, but being shortlisted in the last 15 films is an honor in itself. It has been very special for Homebound to come this far and represent India across the world. I will always be grateful to be a part of this film. We had come this far so we had some expectations. Everyone who saw this film liked it very much. They called it a strong story. This is also like an achievement.
