"The two films that we discussed a lot apart from 'Liar's Dice' were Hindi films 'Shahid' and 'Ankhon Dekhi'. All the films were good but we were impressed by the subtlety and narrative of 'Liar's Dice'," Hariharan told PTI.
He also noted that the whole selection process was a huge responsibility.
"Selecting a film to represent India is a huge responsibility and we were very much aware of that. It was a unanimous decision in the end," Hariharan said.
