Did rrr win oscar

It has happened. RRR song 'Naatu Naatu' has created history by winning an Oscar for Best Original Song. The SS Rajamouli film became the first Indian production to win an Oscar. Previously, many Indians, including costume designer Bhanu Athaiya (for Gandhi) and composer AR Rahman (for Slumdog Millionaire), have won the Academy Award statuette, but for British or American productions (though Gandhi was a joint Indian and British production). RRR, featuring Ram Charan and Jr NTR in lead roles, thus created history. Ajay Devgn, Alia Bhatt, Shriya Saran, Samuthirakani, Ray Stevenson, Alison Doody, and Olivia Morris were also in the film's cast.

RRR follows two real-life revolutionaries who took on the might of the British Empire in the early 20th century. Alluri Sitarama Raju (Charan) and Komaram Bheem (Rama Rao) join forces in 1920 to fight the colonialists.

That done, he creates sequences that may not follow logic, and they are not meant to, but are wildly entertaining once you surrender your faculties to the film. He makes no pretence of crea...
