Description:

RRR is still in the Oscar race, having submitted nominations in all categories. However, Chhello Show is India's entry in the Best Foreign Film category. RRR is a fictionalised account of two real-life revolutionaries starring Jr NTR and Ram Charan. The period action-drama grossed over Rs 1100 crore globally and was also a critical success. It rose to prominence in the West following its digital release on Netflix, where it quickly became a cult classic, earning praise from Hollywood heavyweights such as James Gunn and Danny DeVito. In the months leading up to the big night, RRR won a number of accolades, including a Golden Globe for Best Original Song (for Naatu Naatu), a first for an Indian film.
