RRR

RRR[b] (subtitled onscreen as Roudram Ranam

Rudhiram) is a 2022 Indian Telugu-language epic RRR
historical action drama film directed by S. S.
Rajamouli, who co-wrote the script with V. Vijayendra
Prasad. Produced by D. V. V. Danayya under DVV
Entertainment, the film stars N. T. Rama Rao Jr. and
Ram Charan as fictionalised versions of Indian
revolutionaries Komaram Bheem and Alluri Sitarama
Raju, respectively. It also features Ajay Devgn, Alia
Bhatt, Shriya Saran, Samuthirakani, Ray Stevenson,
Alison Doody and Olivia Morris in supporting roles.
The film serves as a fictional tribute to the
revolutionaries and their fight against oppression.[10]

Rajamouli conceptualised the film by reimagining the

lives of Sitarama Raju and Bheem, envisioning their
meeting in 1920 Delhi as two formidable forces
uniting to battle British colonial tyranny. The film was
officially announced in March 2018, and principal
photography began in November 2018 in Hyderabad. Theatrical release poster

Plot
During the British Raj in 1920, the tyrannical Governor Scott Buxton and his wife Catherine visit a forest
in Adilabad, where they abduct Malli, an artistically talented young girl from the Gond tribe. The tribe's
guardian Komaram Bheem embarks for Delhi to rescue her, disguising himself as a Muslim named
Akhtar. The Nizamate of Hyderabad warns Buxton's office of the impending danger and advises them to
return the child. Undeterred, Catherine enlists Alluri Sitarama Raju, an ambitious Indian Imperial Police
officer, to quell the threat, promising a promotion should he capture Bheem alive or a bounty otherwise.
Ram and his uncle Venkateswarulu attend a pro-independence gathering in disguise, where Bheem's aide
Lachhu attempts to recruit them into Bheem's plot. On the way to Bheem's hideout, Lachhu discerns
Ram's identity and flees. Shortly afterward, Ram and Bheem witness a child getting trapped by a train
wreck and work together to rescue him. Unaware of their opposing allegiances, they form a close
friendship.

With Ram's help, Bheem courts an Englishwoman named Jenny, discovering that she is staying with the
Buxtons. Following a party where Ram and Bheem out-dance the pompous English attendees, Jenny
invites Bheem to her residence, where he finds Malli and promises to free her soon after. Meanwhile,
Ram locates Lachhu and apprehends him. While being interrogated, Lachhu sets a banded krait onto Ram
and warns him of his imminent death and that the antidote is only known to the Gonds. Bheem finds
Ram, saves his life, and divulges his tribal identity and mission, unaware of Ram's true identity. That
night, at an event to honour Governor Buxton, Bheem's men barge into his residence with a truck filled
with wild animals; they maul Buxton's guards, creating havoc among the guests. Ram arrives and fights
Bheem; Bheem is forced to stand down when Buxton holds Malli at gunpoint. Bheem is arrested and
Ram is promoted.

A flashback reveals that Ram's father Alluri Venkatarama Raju was a revolutionary who hoped to arm his
village with British rifles but was killed by British soldiers before he got the chance. Ram subsequently
left his village and his fiancée Sita to become a mole within the police, his promotion for having captured
Bheem finally giving him access to the gun shipments. At Bheem's public flogging, Ram attempts to
persuade him to recant his actions; Bheem chooses flogging instead. Bheem sings in defiance of his
injuries, inciting the assembled crowd into rebellion, and further enlightening Ram. He persuades Buxton
to execute Bheem in secrecy in front of Malli while preparing an ambush to rescue both of them, but
Buxton deduces the plan, and Ram is injured while rescuing Malli. Bheem, thinking Malli is in danger,
bludgeons Ram and escapes with the girl. Ram is arrested for treason and imprisoned in solitary
confinement.

Months later, Bheem, who is hiding with his group and Malli in Hathras, is cornered by the colonial
authorities. He narrowly avoids being exposed when Sita repels them by claiming there is a smallpox
epidemic. Unaware of Bheem's identity, she reveals Ram's anti-colonial objectives and his impending
execution. Realising his folly, Bheem vows to save him. With Jenny's assistance, Bheem infiltrates the
barracks where Ram is detained and frees him. The pair retreat to a nearby forest, where they defeat
soldiers with a longbow taken from a Rama shrine and a spear. Taking the fight to Buxton, they hurl a
flaming motorcycle into the barracks' magazines, setting it afire. Bheem steals a cache of guns for Ram
before the barracks explode, killing many soldiers and Catherine. Cornering a wounded Buxton, Ram has
Bheem execute him with a British rifle, fulfilling their respective objectives. Ram is reunited with Sita,
and Bheem and Malli are reunited with their tribe. To mark the mission's successful completion, Ram
asks Bheem to make a wish he can grant; Bheem asks Ram to provide education for him and his
community.

Development

Alluri Sitarama Raju (left) and Komaram Bheem (right), the real-life Indian revolutionaries fictionalised in the
film

In October 2017, in an interview with Variety, S. S. Rajamouli announced two projects after Baahubali 2:
The Conclusion (2017) with producers D. V. V. Danayya of DVV Entertainment and K. L. Narayana.
Rajamouli prioritised his work on the former, which was touted to be a social drama film, and which
would be followed by Narayana's production with actor Mahesh Babu.[20] In November 2017, Rajamouli
shared a picture with N. T. Rama Rao Jr. and Ram Charan through his social media handles, hinting their
inclusion in the film.[21]

Rajamouli came across real-life stories about the lives of Rama Raju and Bheem and connected the
coincidences between them, imagining what would have happened had they met, and been friends.[22]

The film was announced in March 2018,[23] with the tentative title RRR, an abbreviation for Rajamouli,
Ram Charan, and Rama Rao.[24] The tentative title RRR was later confirmed to be the film's official title
as Rajamouli felt that a universal title across the languages was essential for a film of such scale.[25][26]
Principal photography of the film began in November 2018 in Hyderabad and continued until August
2021, owing to delays caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. It was filmed extensively across India, with a
few sequences filmed in Ukraine and Bulgaria.[27]
Rajamouli's father V. Vijayendra Prasad gave the original story and Rajamouli scripted the film, which he
worked on for six months.[28] In September 2018, writer Sai Madhav Burra was signed for the dialogues
for the film in the primary language (Telugu),[29] whereas dialogues in other versions were written by
Madhan Karky (Tamil),[30] Varadaraj Chikkaballapura (Kannada),[31] Mamkombu Gopalakrishnan
(Malayalam),[32] and Riya Mukherjee (Hindi).[33] Rajamouli retained several technicians from his
previous projects. The crew consists of M. M. Keeravani as the music director, K. K. Senthil Kumar as
the director of photography, A. Sreekar Prasad as the film editor, Sabu Cyril as the production designer, V.
Srinivas Mohan handling the visual effects supervision, and Rama Rajamouli as the costume designer.[34]
Nick Powell was the stunt director for the film, and handled the choreography for the climax action
sequences in the film.[35] Prior to the start of film production, both Rama Rao and Charan had attended a
special workshop in mid-November 2018, in order to train physically and intensively for their roles in the
film.[36][37]

RRR is an entirely fictitious story incorporating the lives of two real-life Indian revolutionaries, namely
Alluri Sitarama Raju and Komaram Bheem, who fought against the British Raj and the Nizam of
Hyderabad respectively. Charan plays Rama Raju while Rama Rao plays Komaram Bheem. The plot
explores their stay in Delhi of the 1920s before they begin the fight for their country.[38] Rajamouli stated
that there had been a coincidence between the two Telugu tribal leaders and the events surrounding over
them.[39]

When I read about Alluri Sitarama Raju and Komaram Bheem, it was exciting to know that
their story is similar. They never met each other. What if they had met? What if they had got
inspired by each other? That is what RRR is about. It is completely fictitious. The film is
mounted on a very large scale. We had to do a lot of research for it. To know costumes, their
dialect, their way of living and that is why it took so much time for us to get this together.

— S. S. Rajamouli[40]

Casting
In March 2019, Rajamouli finalised the cast. The film marks the Telugu debut of Ajay Devgn and Alia
Bhatt.[41][42][43] Bhatt was paired opposite Charan in the role of Sita, while Devgn would have an
extended cameo.[44] Tamil actor Samuthirakani was roped in to play a crucial role.[43] British actress
Daisy Edgar-Jones was signed to be paired opposite Rama Rao,[43] however, she left the project in April
2019 citing personal reasons, which later revealed to be scheduling conflicts to Normal People.[45] Olivia
Morris was cast as her replacement in November 2019. The same month, Irish actor Ray Stevenson was
cast as the lead antagonist Scott, with Alison Doody joining in to play Lady Scott.[46] Chakri, Varun
Buddhadev, Spandan Chaturvedi and Twinkle Sharma were the child artists for the film.[47]

In an interview with Deadline Hollywood, Rama Rao said that they had carried out major research to
portray their characters on screen. He was put on an 18-month training programme to get the right
physical appearance.[48] The Hans India reported in March 2019 that Devgn will appear in the second
half of the film during the flashback episodes.[49] Reports claimed that Keerthy Suresh and Priyamani
were approached for a role in the film,[50][51] before Shriya Saran confirmed her role opposite Devgn in
June 2020.[52] Rahul Ramakrishna,[53] Chatrapathi Sekhar[54] and Rajeev Kanakala are cast in other
supporting roles.[55]
 Alia Bhatt (top), Ray Stevenson (middle) and Ajay Devgn (bottom) made their debut in Telugu cinema
(Tollywood) in this film.

In June 2020, Bhatt was trolled by the netizens following the death of Sushant Singh Rajput, where she
was accused of nepotism. A few fans also called to replace Bhatt in RRR.[56] However, Bhatt denied the
news of her leaving the film and being replaced by Priyanka Chopra,[57] and joined the sets in December
2020.[58] She learnt to speak Telugu for the film.[59][60]

Design
Sabu Cyril served as the production designer for RRR.[34] Prior to starting the first shooting schedule, the
team had constructed a set at an aluminium factory located in Hyderabad, for filming an action
sequence.[61][62] A manduva house was constructed for the film actors and technicians.[63] The first
schedule of the film's shooting was held at the Aluminium factory set for nearly 20 days.[61] In June
2020, it was reported that ₹18 crore (US$2.43 million) was spent for a set replicating an entire village in
Gandipet, where the team planned to film the sequences in this location post-COVID-19 lockdown.[64] A
set resembling the 20th-century Delhi was recreated at the Ramoji Film City,[58] where the team had
undergone an extensive action schedule for 50 days, which involved night shoots.[65] Another huge set
was constructed by the art direction crew for a song shoot featuring Charan and Bhatt.[66] The
promotional music video for the film titled "Dosti" was filmed in July 2021, at a specially constructed set
at the Annapurna Studios designed by Sabu Cyril and photographed by Dinesh Krishnan.[67][68][69]
Principal photography
The film's launch event with a puja ceremony was held on 11 November 2018, which saw the attendance
of noted personalities from the Telugu film industry,[70] including Prabhas and Rana Daggubati, who had
worked with Rajamouli in the Baahubali franchise.[71][72] Principal photography of the film commenced
on 19 November 2018 in Hyderabad at a specially erected set at an Aluminium factory in the
location.[61][62] It is the first Indian film to be shot on Arri Alexa LF and Arri Signature Prime lens.[73]
Senthil Kumar told American Cinematographer that, he "avoided the use of overt stylization such as
extreme color palettes and unrealistic camera moves, in favor of a more classical cinematographic
approach".[74] The filming schedule was completed on 6 December 2018.[75] The team took a brief break
before commencing the film's second schedule on 21 January 2019 at Ramoji Film City in Hyderabad.[76]
More than 270 days were spent shooting[77] with a single sequence - in which the two friends fight it out
amid wild animals and fiery explosions - occupying a total of 65 nights.[78] An action sequence consisting
of 1000 artists was filmed during February 2019.[79] An extensive schedule was filmed in Vadodara for
10 days in March 2019.[80] A few scenes were also shot at Siddhpur, Gujarat.[74] Another schedule was
planned in Pune, Maharashtra, however, it was called off following Charan's injury on the sets.[81] Rama
Rao too faced a minor injury on the sets,[82] resulting the team to take a break during the schedule.[83]
Ram Charan's introduction scene was reportedly shot for 32 days.[84]

After their recovery, an action sequence featuring Charan,

Rama Rao and 2000 junior artists was shot, reportedly at a
cost more than ₹45 crore (US$5.3 million).[86] Introductory
sequences of Rama Rao and Charan costed the production
upwards of ₹40 crore (US$4.7 million), a sum considered
higher than the total budget of many small Indian films.[87] In
August 2019, the production headed to Bulgaria to film the
second schedule where the crew shot crucial scenes featuring
Rama Rao.[88] The shoot was stalled during October 2019 as

In November 2019, a song featuring Rama Rao and Charan

was filmed at the Ramoji Film City.[90]
The film's official social media handle tweeted that 70% of the
film's shoot had been wrapped as of November.[91] Rama Rao headed to the Modakondamma Temple
forest area in the Paderu–Araku road to film for five days in December 2019.[85][92] In January 2020,
Charan began a week-long night shoot in the Vikarabad forest region.[92] Ajay Devgn joined the film's
shooting schedule on 21 January 2020 and wrapped his portions during February.[93] The film was halted
due to the COVID-19 pandemic in March 2020.[94] After the governments of Andhra Pradesh and
Telangana granted permission to resume film shooting during June 2020,[95] a 2-day trial shoot was
planned, but it was halted following the spike in COVID-19 cases in Hyderabad.[96] The filming was
resumed in early October 2020 following the ease of the COVID-19 lockdown in India,[97] and
Rajamouli shot for the promotional teaser for the film, titled "Ramaraju for Bheem", during this
schedule.[98] Abiding to social restrictions related to the pandemic, the production unit was
accommodated in a hotel in Madhapur and were barred from coming into contact with outsiders not
belonging to the production.[97]
In late-October, the team canned night shoots for the film and stills were revealed by the official social
media handles for the film under the tagline #RRRDiaries.[99][100] The action sequences, which took
place for 50 days, were completed by the end of November 2020.[65] The production then moved to
Mahabaleshwar to film a very brief schedule in early December 2020[101][102] The production then
moved to Ramoji Film City in Hyderabad for further filming.[103][104] Alia Bhatt began filming her
portions in Hyderabad in December 2020, during which key scenes involving her were shot.[105][103] The
filming of the climax scenes began in January 2021.[103] Action director Nick Powell choreographed few
climax war-sequences in March 2021.[104] A special song shoot featuring Charan and Bhatt was held
during the same month.[66] Though the filming was halted again due to the second wave of COVID-
19,[106] it was resumed in June 2021.[107] In June 2021, the makers announced that except for two songs,
the filming was completed and Charan and Rama Rao had completed their dubbing work in two
languages,[108] and had completed the talkie portions for the film.[109]

In August 2021, the final schedule of the film took place in

Ukraine.[110] The song "Naatu Naatu" was shot during the
schedule at Mariinskyi Palace, Kyiv, which is the ceremonial
residential palace of President of Ukraine, filming took place
some months before Russia invaded Ukraine.[111][16] Barring
a few shots, the entire shoot was completed on 26 August
2021.[112] In an article published in March 2022, by News18,
it was reported that at least 3000 technicians have worked on
RRR, while nine co-directors also contributed to the film. It The "Naatu Naatu" song was filmed at

and 40 fighters from other countries took part in the film. At
least 2500 crew people were also hired from London.
Overseas locations including Netherlands was also used for shooting some important sequences.[113]

RRR began with a budget of between ₹350 crore (US$49.7 million) and ₹400 crore (US$56.8 million) in
2019.[114] However, the budget was overrun by around ₹150 crore (US$18 million) due to the delays
caused by the COVID-19 pandemic,[115] with the film's final budget estimated to be ₹550 crore
(US$64 million),[11][116] thus making RRR the most expensive Indian film at the time of its release.[117]
In March 2022, according to the producer's application to the Government of Andhra Pradesh for ticket
price hikes, the film's budget was ₹336 crore (US$39 million) excluding the Goods and Services Tax and
the remunerations of the director and star cast.[118]

Post-production
Post-production of the film began simultaneously with the wrapping-up and continuation of film
production. The dubbing process began during April 2020, with Rama Rao and Charan dubbing their
portions for the film from their homes, and thus being the first persons to do so.[119][120] Both actors gave
voiceovers for each other's introduction teasers.[121][122] In June 2021, the film producers reported that
both actors had completed dubbing for the film.[123] On 26 August 2021, after filming was completed, the
film entered into an extensive post-production phase.[124] With three years already invested in the film,
Rajamouli's decision to spend less time in post-production compared to his other films was due to future
commitments, rising production costs, and filming postponements caused by COVID-19 restrictions.[125]
The dubbing works were completed by late October 2021.[126] Both Rama Rao and Charan dubbed their
lines for four languages, namely Telugu, Hindi, Tamil and Kannada.[127]

V. Srinivas Mohan is the visual effects supervisor of the film, along with Framestore and the Moving
Picture Company (MPC), the film's principal visual effects studio.[128] Alzahra VFX, Red Chillies VFX,
NY VFXWaala, Redefine, Knack Studios, Makuta VFX, Digital Domain, Rhythm and Hues Studios,
Method Studios, Rodeo FX, Technicolor VFX, Legend3D, The Third Floor, Inc, Clear Angle Studios,
Halon Entertainment, 4DMax, and Cinesite, among others, are responsible for some of the other visual
effects in the film. In an interview, Mohan discussed the utilisation of pre-visualization, LiDAR scanning,
and light stage technology in the film.[129] Extensive visual effects work took place for more than six
months during the post-production process.[28] The finishing work for RRR was performed at ANR Sound
& Vision at Annapurna Studios, by colorist BVR Shivakumar.[74]

The final copy of the film was ready by late November 2021, and was submitted to the Central Board of
Film Certification (CBFC) that month.[130] On 9 December 2021, the film received a U/A certificate from
the Censor Board, with a finalised runtime of 187 minutes.[131]

between two superheroes".[133] He has said that the bifurcation of "I was interested in the

human brotherhood. People cutting across all religions
and regions are shown participating in their common fight
against the Britishers. The film builds idea of love
between religions, camaraderie of the struggling people
and promotes the idea of inclusion.[138]

Some viewers in India and the Western world viewed their relationship through a queer lens, arguing that
they were a queer coded romantic couple on social media; however, others responded, claiming that
Westerners assigning such readings had misinterpreted Indian culture and male friendships.[139][140]
Rajamouli reiterated that it was just a friendship, and how one should be unapologetic about showing
men's friendship on screen.[141] American filmmaker Joe Russo similarly found it to be "a really powerful
story about brotherhood".[142]

RRR borrows from India's two major Hindu mythological epics — Ramayana and Mahabharata. The two
protagonists of the film, Alluri Sitarama Raju and Komaram Bheem, who are based on real-life
personalities, are also modelled after their namesakes from the Hindu mythology. Rama Raju shares the
qualities of the supple and skilled Rama of Ramayana while Komaram Bheem is equivalent to the
muscular and immovable Bhima of Mahabharata. Like Rama Raju and Komaram Bheem, Rama and
Bhima never met in mythology. The abduction of Sita, which is the central theme of Ramayana plays out
in reverse in RRR, with Rama Raju being captured following a series of events. Komaram Bheem (who is
also modelled after Hanuman), carries a message from Sita, and saves Rama Raju.[143]

The Indian Express's Manoj Kumar wrote that unlike other Rajamouli's films, RRR addresses worldly
matters such as "racism, shared history of freedom struggle among different communities and the need
for interfaith brotherhood."[144] An article was published by The Times of India in April 2022 writing
about how pan-Indian films such as RRR are promoting violence. Speaking about the issue, writer V.
Vijayendra Prasad told that RRR showcased action as per the story and era it takes place in, not
violence.[145]

Kaveree Bamzai of Open magazine writes this about Bheem's attack on the governor's palace

The animals, ranging from tigers to stags, run riot, tearing the enemy to bits. It is both a
metaphor and a statement. A metaphor for the weaponisation of the Earth, a foreshadowing
of climate change, and a statement on the tribal way of life in which the human apologises to
the beast for taking advantage of it.

She noted that the film's layered storytelling emphasising the two conflicting ways in which Ram and
Bheem fight for India's freedom is a theme that is appropriate to revisit in the nation's 75th year post-
independence. She also notes,

The fight against the British is shown to be as plural as the actual freedom struggle was.
Bheem, in fact, spends much of the movie disguised as a Muslim mechanic, Akhtar, and is
given shelter by a family in Delhi. There is no pandering to the establishment in the movie, a
hallmark of most movies emerging out of Bollywood currently.[132]
Katie Rife of Polygon in her review of the film, felt that — betrayal, loyalty and legacy are the major
themes of the film. Also, she opined that "RRR is relatively light on music and romance, devoting much
of its screen time to visual spectacle, gonzo action, and patriotic zeal. The dynamic between Bheem and
Raju has shades of the macho bromance of John Woo's 1980s movies, until the film transforms into a
superhero team-up".[146] MensXP in their article praising Rajamouli, opined that strong representation of
heroism in the film was one of the key reasons for the film's success.[147]

Rajamouli's older cousin and regular collaborator M. M. Keeravani composed the score and the
soundtrack of the film.[148] The audio rights of the film were purchased for ₹25 crore (US$2.9 million),
by Lahari Music and T-Series, which was a record price for a South Indian album.[149] Lahari Music
distributed the soundtrack in Telugu, Tamil, Kannada and Malayalam versions, whereas the Hindi version
soundtrack is marketed by T-Series.[150]

Marketing
The filmmakers invited fans to enter a naming contest by
submitting their suggestions for the title of RRR in various
languages.[151][152] On 25 March 2020, the titles for RRR in
various versions were revealed: Raudraṁ Raṇaṁ Rudhiraṁ
in Telugu,[153] Rattam Raṇam Rauttiram in Tamil,[154]
Raudra Raṇa Rudhira in Kannada, Rudhiram Raṇam
Raudhram in Malayalam (all of which translate to 'Rage, War,
Blood') and Rise Roar Revolt in the Hindi version.[155]

during the film's announcement.[156] During the second wave launch event of the film's Tamil version in
of COVID-19, the movie crew converted the official handle Chennai, Tamil Nadu.
into a COVID-19 helpline offering information regarding the
availability of emergency services in Telugu-speaking states
as well as safety tips.[157] In October 2021, PVR Cinemas announced that more than 850 of its screens
would be re-branded as "PVRRR" until the release and run of the film. That same month, Rajamouli and
the PVR team unveiled the company's re-branded logo.[158] After the song "Naatu Naatu" was released in
November 2021,[159] the hook step choreographed by Prem Rakshith and performed by Charan and Rama
Rao in the music video went viral.[160] Many people have recreated the hook step by recording
themselves dancing to the song and posting their videos on social media.[161]

On 22 October 2020, a teaser trailer was released, titled "Ramaraju for Bheem", coinciding with
Komaram Bheem's 119th birth anniversary.[162] A controversy was sparked over portrayal of Bheem's
character.[163][164] In the video, Rama Rao was seen wearing a skull cap, applying kohl on to his eyes and
appearing dressed as a Muslim man.[165] Members from the tribal community of Adilabad and a few
netizens have opposed this representation of an Adivasi leader from the Gond tribe, as a Muslim
man.[166] In November 2020, during a by-election campaign at Dubbaka, Bharatiya Janata Party's
Telangana president Bandi Sanjay Kumar warned Rajamouli,[167] and threatened that his cadre will
vandalise the theatres and his properties, if he intended to hurt the sentiments of Hindus.[168][169] Later, in
an interview with Film Companion's Anupama Chopra in July 2021, writer Vijayendra Prasad clarified
about the Bheem's appearance in the film, saying, "He is being [hunted] by the British Raj. So, he is
trying to escape the people from British police. So, what is the best camouflage? Simple. He is playing a
Muslim boy in that time so that he won't be [caught]."[170]

The official trailer was initially scheduled to be released on 3 December 2021,[171] but was postponed
and released on 8 December 2021 in five languages, including Telugu.[172][173] Trailer launch events
were held for the five versions of the film in Mumbai (Hindi),[174] Bangalore (Kannada)[175] and
Hyderabad (Telugu).[176] Reviewing the trailer, The Times of India cited it as "Goosebumps
overloaded".[177] Praising the trailer cut, The Hindu stated "SS Rajamouli promises another epic for the
ages".[172] Praising Rajamouli's work, Hindustan Times called it "an epic theatrical experience".[173]
Roktim Rajpal of Deccan Herald noted that the film has universal storyline and also felt that it is a
"perfect multi-starrer" while comparing it with 1957 epic film Mayabazar.[178]

On 19 December 2021, a pre-release event was held at Gurukul Ground near Film City in Mumbai to
promote the film's Hindi version.[179] Hosted by Karan Johar, the team invited Salman Khan as the chief
guest.[179] The television streaming rights for the event were acquired by Zee Network. It was telecasted
on Zee TV, Zee Cinema and Zee Cinemalu on 31 December 2021.[180] The next day, it was made
available on YouTube. To promote the film's Tamil version, a pre-release event was held on 27 December
2021 at Chennai Trade Centre, Chennai.[181][182] Udhayanidhi Stalin and Sivakarthikeyan were the chief
guests of the event.[183] On 29 December 2021, the team took part in the Malayalam version's pre-release
event held at Thiruvananthapuram, Kerala.[184] Tovino Thomas was the chief guest of the event.[185]
Soon after, the film's release and promotional activities were postponed. The film producers faced a loss
of between ₹18 crore (US$2.1 million)–₹20 crore (US$2.3 million) in promotions, as the film's release
was delayed again due to COVID-19.[186][187]

After the film's final release date was announced in late-January 2022, promotions and marketing of the
film were restarted. At first, a music video "Etthara Jenda" (in Telugu) was released as RRR Celebration
Anthem on 14 March 2022. The song featured Rama Rao, Ram Charan and Alia Bhatt praising the
freedom fighters from various regions of India.[188][189] According to The Times of India, Bhuvan Bam
was hired to be part of film's promotions in late 2021.[190] Later, in March 2022 a video was released on
Bhuvan Bam's YouTube channel, in which he interviewed Rajamouli, Rama Rao and Ram Charan as part
of his show Titu Talks.[191]

Soon after, the team has planned a promotional tour across nine cities on six days starting from 18 March
2022 to 23 March 2022.[192] On the first day of the tour, the team including Rajamouli, Rama Rao and
Ram Charan headed to Dubai to participate in an event held at the Dubai Exhibition Centre in the Indian
Pavilon (as part of the Expo 2020).[193][194] The next day, the team returned to India and attended a press
conference in Bangalore.[195][196] On the same day, to promote the Telugu and Kannada versions of the
film, a pre-release event was held at Agalagurki in Chikkaballapura district of Karnataka.[197] It was
organised by the film's Karnataka distribution company KVN Productions.[198] Chief minister of
Karnataka Basavaraj Bommai was the chief guest of the event. The other guests of the event were Shiva
Rajkumar and K. Sudhakar (MLA of Chikballapur and Health minister of Karnataka).[199] Suma
Kanakala and Anushree have hosted the event. The following day, the team toured Baroda and
Delhi.[200] At first, the team visited Statue of Unity making it the first film to visit for promotions.[201]
The same day, an event was held by film's Hindi distributor Jayantilal Gada, at the Imperial Hotel in New
Delhi where the cast and crew interacted with the media and fans. Aamir Khan was the chief guest of the
event.[202] On the fifth day, the team toured Kolkata and Varanasi.[203][204] The team visited the Howrah
Bridge in Kolkata and interacted with the local media to promote their film in the region,[205][206]
followed by performing the Ganga aarti in Varanasi.[207][208]

Release

Theatrical
RRR was scheduled to have special premieres across India and the United States on 24 March 2022[209]
before its worldwide theatrical release on 25 March.[210][211] Earlier, it was scheduled to be theatrically
released on 30 July 2020.[212] However, in February 2020,[213] the release date was revised to 8 January
2021, a week prior to the Sankranthi festival (14 January 2021).[214][215] Due to the COVID-19 pandemic
lockdown, which disrupted production, the film's release was put on hold.[216] Rajamouli said that the
new release date would be confirmed after the completion of shooting.[217] On the eve of Republic Day
(25 January 2021), a 13 October 2021 release date, coinciding with the eve of Dusshera weekend, was
announced[218][219] The release date was again deferred, citing theatrical restrictions across the world due
to the second wave of COVID-19 and its aftermath.[220][221]

In early October 2021, the theatrical release date was changed to 7 January 2022, ahead of the Sankranthi
festival.[222] However, a week before the release, the film producers announced that the film's release
would be postponed indefinitely due to the increasing number of COVID-19 cases, fuelled by the SARS-
CoV-2 Omicron variant.[223][224] In mid-January, two tentative release dates were announced pending the
pandemic situation: 18 March 2022 and 28 April 2022.[225][226] Later, the producers finalised a 25 March
2022 release date.[227] The film was intended to be released in Telugu along with the dubbed versions in
Hindi, Tamil, Malayalam, Kannada, and other Indian and foreign languages in 2D, 3D and IMAX
formats.[228][229] It is the first Indian film to be released in Dolby Cinema format.[230]

In January 2022, a public interest litigation (PIL) was filed in the Telangana High Court to restrain the
film for being released, alleging that the film distorts the history of Alluri Sita Rama Raju and Komaram
Bheem.[231] The High Court quashed the petition in March, observing that the film did not tarnish the
reputation of the two revolutionaries as claimed.[232]

Following political and film industry backlash after reducing ticket prices last year, Chief minister of
Andhra Pradesh Y. S. Jagan Mohan Reddy issued a ticket price hike in Andhra Pradesh in mid-March
2022.[233][234] As per Cinematography Minister Perni Venkataramaiah, the filmmakers received
government approval to increase ticket prices by ₹75 (88¢ US) during the first ten days after the film's 25
March release.[235]

called "#encoRRRe".[246][247] Speaking to Deadline Hollywood, Dylan Marchetti of Variance Films said
that "With more than 250 films coming out of India annually, RRR could be a gateway drug".[248] In his
review of the film Nashville Scene 's Jason Shawhan wrote about the event that "the nationwide encore of
RRR is American audiences reaching with outstretched arms to something so exciting and rock-solid
entertaining that its success already happened without insular traditional media even mentioning it. This
isn't America dipping a toe in Indian cinema — it's a victory lap".[249]

In June 2022, London-based Prince Charles Cinema announced that it will re-release the film on popular
demand on 3, 5, and 29 July and 8 August 2022, with additional screenings that September.[250][251] RRR

so far" in June of the same year.[294]
India
Taran Adarsh of Bollywood Hungama gave the film a rating of 4/5 and termed RRR as a solid entertainer
that "doesn't make you restless, despite a marathon run time. The screenplay is wonderfully constructed,
the twists and turns are attention grabbing and the nail-biting episodes as well as superbly executed
action."[295] Roktim Rajpal of Deccan Herald gave the film a rating of 4/5 and wrote, "The action-packed
climax again hits the right notes as the visuals do the talking, the hallmark of good storytelling".[296]
Neeshita Nyayapati of The Times of India gave the film a rating of 3.5/5 and wrote, "RRR is not
perfection by any means (despite Rajamouli's best efforts) because after the way he pulls off certain
scenes, you wonder if he could've done a better job in certain others. But watch this one this weekend if
you've been pining for a good action packed drama".[297]

Himesh Mankad of Pinkvilla gave the film a rating of 3.5/5 and wrote, "RRR has the best action
sequences to offer in an Indian film with an unimaginable interval block and a roaring finale".[298] Janani
K of India Today gave the film a rating of 3.5/5 and wrote, "RRR is a terrific film with brilliant
performances and amazing set-pieces".[299] A reviewer from Deccan Chronicle gave the film a rating of
3.5/5 and wrote, "RRR is a fantastic film that's meant for the big screen".[300] Latha Srinivasan of
Firstpost gave the film a rating of 3.5/5 and wrote, "Ram Charan and Jr NTR's offscreen friendship and
camaraderie seep into their onscreen performances, and the organic transformation from strangers to
brothers-in-arms has been captured beautifully".[301] Sowmya Rajendran of The News Minute gave the
film a rating of 3.5/5 and wrote, "RRR is just the kind of visual treat that will bring people back to
theatres".[302] Bharathi Pradhan of Lehren gave the film a rating of 3.5/5 and wrote, "SSR rescues his
adventure with a smorgasbord of skilfully choreographed, shot and performed action pieces that have you
cheering lustily, the temporary boredom soon forgotten".[303]

Shubhra Gupta of The Indian Express gave the film a rating of 3.5/5 and wrote, "The film casts not just
one super-star, but two of them – Jr NTR and Ram Charan. The biggest super-star among them all is SS
Rajamouli and the audience also saved the loudest 'taalis' (claps) for him".[304] Prateek Sur of Outlook
India gave the film a rating of 3.5/5 and wrote, "The film's grand representation is what makes this a
Must Watch".[305] Stutee Ghosh of The Quint gave the film a rating of 3/5 and wrote, "Parts of RRR seem
Ridiculous and Reductive it's also absolutely Ravishing and for that it deserves to be seen and
enjoyed".[306] Rahul Devulapalli of The Week gave the film a rating of 3/5 and wrote, "Visually stunning
action sequences, exceptionally synchronised dance moves stand out".[307]

Saibal Chatterjee of NDTV gave the film a rating of 2/5 and wrote, "The film rings hollow because it
never pauses for breath and does not grant its two male protagonists anything akin to recognizable human
qualities although they do constantly harp on love and longing".[308] Sukanya Verma of Rediff gave the
film a rating of 2/5 and wrote, "A copious amount of blood, beating, crying, saving, sacrificing,
nationalism fills up its staggering three hours running time. Emotions run sky high, but you feel
nothing".[309]

International
Calling RRR "bigger than Ben-Hur", Deadline Hollywood 's Stephanie Bunbury wrote: "RRR is one action
crescendo after another, never dull but not exhausting either."[310] In her review for Polygon, Katie Rife
stated: "RRR is a busy movie, full of kinetic camerawork, bustling crowd scenes, elaborate set design,
expensive-looking CGI, and loud sound effects."[311] Siddhant Adlakha of IndieWire praised Rajamouli's
work, M. M. Keeravani's music and acting performances of lead actors. He further wrote that RRR
outshines even the director's previous venture Baahubali.[312]

Reviewing the film for The Austin Chronicle, Josh Hurtado called RRR a "bromantic action nirvana".
Hurtado stated that Rajamouli turned a "patriotic fantasy" into an "incredibly entertaining reality for fans
of big action, big emotions, and big laughs."[313] Joe Leydon in his review for Variety felt RRR was
"bigger-than-life and bolder-than-mainstream action-adventure epic."[314] Nicolas Rapold of The New
York Times stated: "Rajamouli shoots the film's action with hallucinogenic fervor, supercharging scenes
with a shimmering brand of extended slow-motion and C.G.I. that feels less 'generated' than
unleashed."[315] Screen International 's Tara Judah wrote that RRR was "big, bold and bombastic", feeling
the film was "big screen entertainment at its best".[316] Writing for Rolling Stone, David Fear cited the
film as "best and most revolutionary of 2022". He further wrote that "RRR is about the movies: the thrill
of watching stories told at larger-than-life levels, the joy of watching stars collide, the effort of rendering
lavish mythologies at whatever the digital equivalent of 24 frames per second is, the sensation of seeing
manufactured movement via gleefully conspicuous special effects bump up against genuine physical
effort". Praising the dance number "Naatu Naatu", he stated—"Seriously, the 'Desi Naach' dance
sequence feels like a Gene Kelly number dialled up to superhuman levels".[317]

Calling it a "dudes rock movie" Hannah Kinney-Kobre of Pittsburgh City Paper compared RRR with
American English-language films and wrote that "the politics that power American blockbusters are
milquetoast and/or incomprehensible – the only thing that justifies their plots is the studio executive's
emphasis on recognizable intellectual property as a way to drive up box office totals. If our system can
only produce movies that refuse to make the most of their astronomical budgets, why not look elsewhere?
RRR is a good place to start".[318] Richard Brody of The New Yorker felt that the film is "of shortcuts and
elisions no less relentless than those of American superhero or superstar vehicles, but Rajamouli is an
artist of a distinctive temperament and talent". On a final note, he further wrote "The movie's powerful
sense of revolutionary virtue and collective purpose yields to nationalistic pride that's danced and sung
with uninhibited joy".[319] Nashville Scene's Jason Shawhan opined that "RRR, in addition to being a
historical epic, political drama, action spectacle and bromantic telenovela, is a film that engages with
history on its own terms. This isn't a case of Tollywood aiming for Western wallets".[249] In his review of
the film, The Atlantic 's David Sims stated: "RRR serves as a reminder of how much modern action
usually follows a formula. If wonder is to be consistently found on the big screen, then Hollywood has
plenty of new lessons to learn from its best competitor".[320] Praising the film, American screenwriter C.
Robert Cargill called it a "craziest, most sincere, weirdest blockbuster".[321][322]

Praising the film's direction and action sequences, The Globe and Mail's Aparita Bhandari opined that the
officers of the British Raj are shown as caricatures, which does not add depth to the narrative. There is
very little character development, or social or historical context. She further wrote "The female characters
barely have a role to play, despite the fact that one of Indian cinema's leading actresses Alia Bhatt plays
Raju's fiancée".[323] Collider''s Chase Hutchinson stated—"An unrelenting ride of a film that makes
blockbusters such as Top Gun: Maverick look like child's play and leaves whatever is happening in
Jurassic World Dominion in its dust, S.S. Rajamouli's action musical epic RRR is what cinema can only
hope to aspire to."[324] Calling it "the craziest movie of the year", Adam Graham of The Detroit News
further stated that "RRR's breakout is significant though, and it's the kind of accessible, crossover success
story that brings more eyes to different cultures, styles and voices across the globe. Even its subtext is
winning favor: the supercharged bromance at the center of the film has been celebrated by some who see
Raju and Bheem as gay superheroes acting out a love affair bubbling just below the surface of all those
explosions".[325] In an article published by Screen Rant, Mark Donaldson wrote that "RRR 's portrayal of
the racism and oppression of colonialism makes it vital viewing for Western audiences that are
interrogating their own countries' troubling colonial pasts".[326]

A critic writing for Israeli newspaper Haaretz praised Rajamouli's screenplay and his vision to make the
film. They further compared RRR with Hollywood films and opined that it is truly an "entertaining
film".[327] Comic Book Resources cited it as the "best blockbuster of 2022" and felt that the film "gives
Western audiences the chance to experience something new, the biggest and best of Indian cinema".[328]
In an article published by The Irish Times, Donald Clarke stated that RRR is "one of the year's
unstoppable cultural phenomena".[329] Matt Patches of Polygon and Wes Greene of Slant Magazine
named the "Naatu Naatu" musical sequence as one of the best movie scenes of 2022.[330][331]

Reception by international filmmakers

RRR received widespread appreciation from international filmmakers and actors, particularly in
Hollywood.[332] It has been recognized as a crossover film from India to the U.S., and has been compared
to Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon (2000).[333][334] Filmmaker Steven Spielberg praised the film,
stating, "I couldn't believe my eyes – it was like eye candy...it was extraordinary to look at and
experience."[335] James Cameron praising the screenplay, direction and music direction of the film, said
that he liked RRR so much that he watched it twice.[336]

J. J. Abrams said that he loved the ‘fever dream madness’ of RRR as he introduced Rajamouli at Los
Angeles' Chinese Theatre.[337] Edgar Wright said that RRR was "an absolute blast" and said it was, "the
only film I have ever seen where the intermission card itself got a round of applause."[338] Christopher
Miller praised RRR, describing it as "like Michael Bay and Baz Luhrmann and Stephen Chow teamed up
to make a movie. It was 3 hours long but it could have been 4 hours and I would’ve still enjoyed it."[339]
Adam McKay publicly expressed support to RRR for the Oscar awards race.[340] Filmmaker James Gunn
said that he "totally dug (RRR)."[341]

The Russo brothers have publicly expressed their appreciation for RRR and Rajamouli. Joe Russo
mentioned, "I've seen RRR, and it's amazing." He further mentioned, "What I think is so amazing about
[RRR] is the emotion it evokes, combined with the spectacle."[342][343] Scott Derrickson tweeted, "to
celebrate my birthday last night, my wife, kids and I watched @RRRMovie — what an awesomely
outrageous roller coaster of a movie. Loved it."[344] Joe Dante called RRR a brutal portrait that depicts the
horrors of British colonisation and said that, "I bet you’ve never seen anything quite like it".[345] Jason
Blum expressed his appreciation for the movie & said that RRR could win Best Picture Oscar 2023.[346]
Daniel Kwan lauded the film, saying, "While a lot of the blockbusters we're making in the States tend to
have self aware, cheeky characters trapped in self-serious filmmaking, RRR was all heart-on-its-sleeve
sincerity wrapped up in the most ridiculous over the top execution. So much to love."[347]

Crore Club and becoming the third highest-grossing Indian film after Dangal and Baahubali 2.[382]
During this period, the film grossed ₹382 crore (US$45 million) in Andhra Pradesh and Telangana. In the

Sudarshan 35 mm, Hyderabad.[387] In mid-May 2022, Los Angeles Times reported that the film grossed
US$14.5 million in the United States.[388] Thus, making it the 31st highest-grossing film in the United

Legacy and impact

The popularity of RRR in the US has led to an increase of Telugu-language movies in Netflix's stateside
catalogue as much as 105 of 2024 - the most among many Indian languages and the ninth overall; other
movies in related languages like Malayalam and Tamil have also seen followed increases in
inventory.[396] The OTT release of RRR had a massive impact on its global reach and popularity. Upon
streaming, the film quickly became the most popular non-English film worldwide, breaking records on
platforms like Netflix and Zee5. Its Hindi version especially resonated with audiences, securing a spot in
Netflix's top 5 films in the U.S. RRR trended in over 90 countries on streaming platforms, with more than
18 million watch hours globally. This digital success, coupled with global awards and critical acclaim,
cemented RRR as a landmark in Indian cinema, showcasing the potential of Indian films on a worldwide
stage.[397][398]

Accolades
The film has received various awards and nominations. The film was considered to be one of the best
films of the year by the National Board of Review, making it only the second non-English film ever to
make it to the list.[399] RRR became the third Indian film and first Telugu film to receive nominations at
the Golden Globe Awards. It was nominated for Best Foreign Language Film, and Best Original Song for
"Naatu Naatu", winning the latter, made the song the first Asian nomination to win the award.[16][17] The
song "Naatu Naatu" also won the Academy Award for Best Original Song at the 95th Academy Awards,
making it the first and only Indian song to win at the Oscars.[400]

Adaptations
In 2024, Takarazuka Revue's Star Troupe staged a musical production of the film, titled RRR
x Taka"R"Azuka - √Bheem-.[401] The production was adapted and directed by Tani Takaya,
and stars Rei Makoto as Komaram Bheem, Maisora Hitomi as Jenny, and Akatsuki Chisei
as A. Rama Raju.[402]

Future
Before the film's release, Rajamouli said that he had no intentions of making a sequel for RRR nor turning
it into a franchise.[403] However, writer Vijayendra Prasad said that "they started exploring the idea of
sequel and hope to make it happen sometime later."[404] Speaking with Variety, Rama Rao expressed his
hope that the world of RRR would be continued as a franchise.[405] During a screening event in Chicago,
Rajamouli said that his father and screenwriter Vijayendra Prasad is working on the sequel's story.[406]
The director also hinted at a sequel to 'RRR' while interacting with fans in Japan in March 2024.[407]
