Rajamouli’s historic movie RRR managed to remain in headlines since its release. The Naatu Naatu track of the movie won the Best Original song at the 95th Academy Awards and the whole team of RRR is on cloud nine. From the director to lead actors, several team members attended the event in Los Angeles but it is reported that The Academy committee didn’t provide free passes to Rajamouli and the other crew members to watch the event Live sitting in the ceremony hall.
To watch the event, according to reports by Siyasat Jadeed director SS Rajamouli bought passes for himself and for other important team members at the cost of 25000 USD, which is approx Rs 20.6L per person. The RRR director
has chosen the last row of the hall keeping in mind the cost of tickets.
SS Rajamouli, Rama Rajamouli, Kartikeya and his wife, Jr NTR, Ram Charan and Upasana were present in the hall. Composed by MM Keeravani (M.M Kreem). Naatu Naatu is the first Indian language song which won the Oscars for Best Original Song.
It’s really shocking as the director of such a high status wasn’t invited by the Academy Awards committee.
But hats off for the director who bought the passes just to cheer up his team member Chandrabose holding the trophy.
….Although it also shows that how much we are obsessed for Oscars, it’s really very sad.
