'Naatu Naatu,' the hit song from 'RRR,' will be performed at this year's Oscars.
S S Rajamouli's RRR has undoubtedly made a roar on the global stage with its unapologetically harmonious marriage of powerhouse action sequences and fearless fantasy. The film chronicles the story of freedom fighters Komaram Bheem and Alluri Sitarama Raju on their journey to battle British colonizers in a pre-independent India. To kick things up a notch, the narrative of the two real-life revolutionaries is elevated with an epic fantasy twist.
COLLIDER VIDEO OF THE DAY The song, which was composed by M. M. Keeravaani and written by Chandrabose, will be showcased by original singers Rahul Sipligunj and Kaala Bhairava at the Dolby Theatre in Los Angeles. The video for the vibrant track, which has become something of an anthem for the film, sees the two protagonists erupt into a series of electric dance steps that were curated by choreographer Prem Rakshith.
“Naatu Naatu” will be competing against a reel of leading Hollywood soundtracks including “Lift Me Up” from Black Panther: Wakanda Forever, Hold My Hand” from Top Gun: Maverick, “This Is A Life” from Everything Everywhere All At Once and “Applause” from Tell It Like A Woman.Despite the acknowledgment, the Oscars has come under fire for excluding RRR from the Best Picture and Best Director categories.
Whilst awards are always a symbol of success, they do little in speaking to the impact of a film such as RRR. Having pulled in nearly $160M worldwide and an impressive 94% on Rotten Tomatoes' audience score meter, it's evident the film has made its stamp. At the very least, RRR has made massive strides to shatter the glass ceiling for the next international venture to take the world by storm.
The 95th Academy Awards take place on March 12 at the Dolby Theatre in Los Angeles. Until then, you can watch the video for "Naatu Naatu" below.
