For Indians, all eyes were on the Best Foreign Film Category winner announcement at the Critics Choice Awards 2025 that happened on February 7 in California. However, much to the collective disappointment of the audience rooting for the critically acclaimed film All We Imagine As Light, the Payal Kapadia directorial did not make the final cut. The film that stars Kani Kusruti lost to another highly acclaimed film `Emilia Perez`. The latter is a Spanish-language French musical crime film by renowned filmmaker Jacques Audiard.

Congratulations to Emilia Pérez, winner of the Critics Choice Award for Best Foreign Language Film. #CriticsChoice #CriticsChoiceAwards #EmiliaPérez@netflix @eentertainment pic.twitter.com/pnFxnWuQmZ
