"Just watched Dev Patel's LION. It is BRILLIANT. So moving & compassionate. Sunny Pawar's face haunts you. Thank you #MAMIpresents," Anupam tweeted.


'Lion', based on Saroo Brierley's best-selling autobiography "A Long Way Home", is a true story about an Indian boy who falls asleep on a train only to wake up and realise he is miles away from home in a strange land where he does not speak the language. 


He experiences many challenges before getting adopted by a couple in Australia. Years later, he sets out to find his lost family.



Dev has received Best Actor in a Supporting Role Oscar nomination for the film.
