I have NEVER been to a screening so rowdy, so exciting, so absolutely INSANE AND WONDERFUL as RRR at the Chinese Theatre. I love this movie. Thank you to @am_cinematheque @BeyondFest for bringing this triumph and showing up in a big way for @RRRMovie #RRRforOscars pic.twitter.com/8VrsbtH5vz

Rajamouli asked the crowd how many of them were watching the film for the first time. “For the people who haven’t seen it yet, I apologize on behalf of the people who have already seen it,” he quipped. “They’re quite a rowdy bunch. Sometimes they won’t let you hear what is happening on the screen. Sometimes they won’t let you see what is happening in this film. So all I can say is, please come back and see the film again.”

“First the intention is to create something spectacular,” said Rajamouli post-screening, as per Variety, “to create something that gives lots and lots of joy to the audience — for example, what we have seen here in the theater today. I like the audience to have not just a little bit of joy. I want them to have lots of joy. If they get angry, I want them to get lots of anger. If they smile, I want to have a lot of laughter. So I want to give them the maximum pleasure experience of film watching.”

Composed by veteran music director MM Keeravaani and penned by Kala Bhairava and Rahul Sipligunj, the Telugu super hit ‘Naatu Naatu’ features Ram Charan and Jr. NTR dancing to this foot-tapping tune. The song has bagged a Golden Globe after competing against some big names including Taylor Swift’s ‘Carolina’, Lady Gaga’s ‘Hold My Hand’ and ‘Lift Me Up’ performed by Rihanna.

RRR’s ‘Naatu Naatu’ has been shortlisted for Best Original Song for Academy Awards 2023. The team of RRR is in Los Angeles for the Oscars campaign. They recently hosted a special screening for the members of the Academy.
