It all started on-air with Star Movies tutoring viewers on the best excuses they could make for the Oscar day, to stay home and watch the Oscars live to beat the Monday blues. Some classics like Aunt Sick, Conjunctivitis, Neck Pain, Fainting and many more creative ideas were shared on-air. The movement has gained popularity online where Star Movies urged its followers to submit their excuses with #AwardWinningExcuses.

Fans across the country started sending their responses with their excuse to skip work and watch the Awards live. The message was further amplified through branding across Jet aircrafts, Gold’s Gyms outlets & PVR Cinemas.

All this effort leads up to one thing – Watch the Oscars Live on Star Movies – for an exclusive chance to watch it live in LA in 2016.

So put your best excuse forward and get ready to catch the biggest Hollywood event of the year with your friends and family.
