Even with his latest movie 'Barfi!' out of the Oscar race, Anurag Basu is not disappointed. He feels better films have made it to the top nine. "It's okay. I am not disappointed. All the other films are so good, so I have no complains," Basu said on the sidelines of an event at the Tata Memorial Hospital here Tuesday.

The nine films are 'Amour' (Austria), 'War Witch' (Canada), 'No' (Chile), 'A Royal Affair' (Denmark), 'The Intouchables' (France), 'The Deep' (Iceland), 'Kon-Tiki' (Norway), 'Beyond the Hills' (Romania) and 'Sister' (Switzerland).
