RRR is a fictional story set in the 1920s pre-independent era and is based on the lives of two real heroes and well-known revolutionaries – Alluri Sitarama Raju ( Ram Charan) and Komaram Bheem ( Jr NTR). The film has opened strongly in other overseas territories as well. From its premiere shows alone, RRR became the first Indian film to breach the $3 million club.

SS Rajamouli delivers an epic mythological action superhero bromance (unknown)

RRR movie review: 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 secret of making us believe is the filmmaker’s complete conviction, and Rajamouli is a dab hand at it: at one delirious point, Ram and Akhtar clasp hands across a burning bridge, with a banner running across the screen: India, 1920. RRR also proves that while the overarching iconography of his films is Hindu, just like in ‘Baahubali’, it is entirely possible to use it without demonising, or othering minorities, even giving the latter a brief look-see in the proceedings. That, for Indian filmmakers and viewers, there will never be a greater, more durable fount of stories than the Ramayan and the Mahabharat. That, if you want to be really safe, you cast not just one super-star, but two of them.

Jr NTR & Ram Charan In S.S. Rajamouli’s Latest Epic (unknown)

Who needs chariots when you have an army of tigers, jackals and monster stags at your disposal? When one small boy with a lock-and-load rifle can take out an ...

It is a question both heroes must ask themselves, both in the course of battle and its aftermath. There is even a flicker of romance between Bheem and the Governor’s niece, who lends the revolutionaries a crucial hand when needed. It is the old chestnut of means and ends. That said, there is an interesting undercurrent of intersectionality at the Governor’s garden party (shot in Ukraine, incidentally) where all the ladies are very taken with our heroes and want to give their kind of dancing a go, much to the chagrin of their men. As for the railways, Britain’s much-vaunted legacy to Empire, the only train in RRR, catches fire on a bridge and collapses into the river that is the people’s livelihood. RRR wastes no time on nuance; it doesn’t give a second’s credence to the lingering British belief that theirs was a benevolent kind of colonialism.

Rajamouli's innovative, digitalised marketing approach (unknown)

Tollywood, Entertainment, Actor, Actress, Cinema, Movie, Telugu Films.

'RRR' ship's captain SS Rajamouli, who publicised his movie all over the country, has spoken about the innovative Snapchat filters which were used as innovative promotional tactics." The 'Baahubali' maker also said, "RRR is a pan-India movie, and hence it was important for us to use good tactics and engage our strong user community of GenZ and Millenials across the country. 'RRR' has hit the screens to many positive reviews.

The Indian action epic RRR finds the universal thrills in revolution (unknown)

Baahubali series director S.S. Rajamouli returns with another three-hour action epic, this time inventing a crowd-rousing history where real-life Indian ...

The dynamic between Bheem and Raju has shades of the macho bromance of John Woo’s 1980s movies, until it transforms into a superhero team-up. Raju has a sweetheart back home — his childhood friend Sita (Alia Bhatt), to whom he pledged eternal loyalty before leaving his village to join the Indian Imperial Police. So he acts as Bheem’s wingman, helping Bheem charm sympathetic Englishwoman Jenny (Olivia Morris) with his aw-shucks attitude and impressive dance skills. Rajamouli is skilled at balancing the film’s many elements, so “overstimulated” isn’t quite the word for how walking out of RRR feels. Jr NTR (the common abbreviation for N.T. Rama Rao Jr.) and Ram Charan, both Telugu superstars in their own right, show off those skills in the rousing “ Naatu Naatu,” RRR’s only real musical production number. [Ed. note: We recommend viewers check local listings or contact the theater to make sure you’re catching the version of RRR you want to see. Bheem trips and knocks a silver tray out of a waiter’s hand at a garden party? This last point makes its way into RRR, as part of a storyline that reframes Raju as a supercop on a mission to take down the British power structure from within. Picture Benjamin Franklin and Paul Revere joining the MCU, with Franklin harnessing the power of electricity, and Revere the swiftness of the wind. They’re two strangers who agree with a nod to embark on a dangerous impromptu rescue mission to save a little boy trapped by a flaming train accident on a Delhi river. There’s a similar moment in RRR (“Rise Roar Revolt”), S.S. Rajamouli’s action-drama hybrid about the adventures of two Indian revolutionaries who have divergent approaches to resisting British occupation in 1920s Delhi. The difference is, in RRR, it’s just one of half a dozen scenes of its kind. RRR explains gaps in both men’s histories by proposing that they became friends after they each made their way to Delhi in the early 1920s — Raju as an undercover imperial cop, Bheem on a rescue mission to save a village girl kidnapped by a colonial governor. Raju, meanwhile, led guerrilla attacks on imperial police stations, seizing British guns and ammunition to level the playing field between colonizer and colonized.

‘RRR’ Has Blowout U.S. Opening For Indian Film, Eyes $12M-$15M Weekend (unknown)

The highly anticipated and Covid-delayed release of Indian action film RRR opened with a bang as distributor Sarigami Cinemas said it has grossed $4.5 ...

It’s said to be one of the biggest-budget Indian films ever. The story is set in 1920s New Delhi amid the Indian freedom movement. As Deadline reported last month, the genre has helped fill a void at the box office this winter and spring, stepping into multiplexes amid a dearth of new releases and playing on a handful of screens at a time in at least three languages including Hindi, Telegu and Tamil. (They’re the only foreign films that don’t play arthouses.) Telugu-Hindi period romantic drama Radhe Shyam had a strong opening on March 11 on 750 screens, already a much wider-than-average release for an Indian film (though below RRR‘s) and in fact the widest of that weekend. The film was supposed to come out in early January and $2 million in presale tickets had to be returned to customers when released was delayed due to Omicron, said Sarigami. It had originally been set to premiere in 2020, then in 2021. The highly anticipated and Covid-delayed release of Indian action film RRR opened with a bang as distributor Sarigami Cinemas said it has grossed $4.5 million including late-night and early-morning shows and anticipated a $12 million-$15 million weekend. This is director-screenwriter Ramajouli beating his own record, namely the 2017 epic action adventure Baahubali 2: The Conclusion. That film, a sibling rivalry set in medieval India and made in Telegu and Tamil, was a follow-up to Baahubali: The Beginning. Ramajouli’s large fan base is turning out for RRR.

RRR starts the record-breaking overseas; Biggest premiere in USA, 1st Indian pic to top AUS BO (unknown)

Playing on over 1200 locs, the film grossed $3.50 million approx, recording the biggest ever premiere in North America for an Indian movie, besting Baahubali: ...

This is the second instance for an Indian movie topping the daily box office chart in the states but had to do with the feat unofficially as the Thursday numbers will be officially rolled into Friday opening day, where the film is expected to earn over $5 million, which will be behind the other two movies it beat on Thursday. Baahubali 2 in 2017 had a similar story as well. The film was just £50K less than the caped-crusader, playing in almost one-sixth locations and having just evening shows. RRRstarted its international rollout on Thursday in a few markets including North America and the United Kingdom and we have some early numbers.

S S Rajamouli's film opens to a sensational response (unknown)

RRR is likely to post good numbers in Karnataka and Tamil Nadu as well, going by the advance bookings in these territories The opening day net collection is likely to be between Rs 15 crore and Rs 20 crore, as per initial trends. The film will beat Baahubali 2, which collected Rs 43 crore on its first day if this is indeed the case.

‘RRR’ Tops ‘The Batman’ With $3.3 Million Thursday (unknown)

I don't have Thursday night grosses for A24's limited release of Daniel Kwan and Daniel Scheinert's mindblowing multiverse comic melodrama, but my 8:15 pm IMAX ...

Of note, I sought out Saaho and War in 2019 because I enjoyed watching wildly extravagant and visually spectacular action-adventure movies on an IMAX screen, especially ones created by a film industry that (generically speaking) seems to love John Woo’s Mission: Impossible II as much as I do. RRR is currently playing in 947 theaters domestically (more than double the 425 theaters in which Baahubali 2 opened), although it only had IMAX or PLF auditoriums for yesterday. This release is being specialty-priced courtesy of the distributor, and you can’t use your AMC A-List or Regal Unlimited passes, so that should be noted as the grosses roll in. The full Thursday gross was $3.3 million, but late night/early morning Friday shows now puts the running cume at $4.5 million. Anyway, RRR was the top movie on Thursday, grossing $3.3 million via a Thursday opening. I don’t have Thursday night grosses for A24’s limited release of Daniel Kwan and Daniel Scheinert’s mindblowing multiverse comic melodrama, but my 8:15 pm IMAX showing at Burbank was packed like sardines and reacting in exactly the “right” way throughout.

RRR brings mojo back to Tollywood after two years (unknown)

Hyderabad: Film director S.S. Rajamouli's long-awaited 'RRR' hit the screens on Friday to packed houses, the biggest release after two years of the Covid-19 ...

“It’s premature to comment,” Suresh Babu told Deccan Chronicle. “Films like RRR are very rare, and hence people would love to watch it in theatres. The film has secured special permission from the Telangana and Andhra Pradesh governments to hike ticket prices. Still, we need to wait and watch the theatrical scenario." “What's heartening is that people are coming to cinema theatres post the pandemic. Hyderabad: Film director S.S. Rajamouli's long-awaited ‘RRR’ hit the screens on Friday to packed houses, the biggest release after two years of the Covid-19 pandemic. Film-makers may make films that are dedicated to either theatrical releases or OTTs.

ram charan: Angry Fans Vandalise Theatre As Glitch Halts ‘rrr’ Screening (unknown)

Angry fans vandalised a movie theatre in Vijayawada after the screening of the movie starring Jr NTR and Ram Charan, RRR, was stalled due to technica.

He added that nowhere in the country is there such a DBT scheme. , as they have witnessed the corruption-free welfare governance and hence gave a huge mandate in the local body polls without falling for opposition’s cheap politics. He stated that 95 per cent of the poll promises were fulfilled in three years, despite reduced revenue due to Covid-19, adding that the government stood by people at all times.

A period film that runs out of steam despite Rajamouli's efforts (unknown)

In fact, this idea—of grand scope and scale—is at the heart of RRR, even as two freedom fighters (Komaram Bheem and Rama Raju) are reimagined as larger-than- ...

As a side-note, it’s hard not to be slightly alarmed at all the romanticisation of violence around the freedom struggle, especially given the part ahimsa played in our history. Later, he even admits to his simplicity and is ashamed of it, and goes on to express a type of devotion for Ram. That’s why ‘Bhaiya’ turns to ‘Anna’. That’s why in one scene, he even invokes Lanka and says that he will reunite Ram and Sita even if the whole place had to be burned down. If you blink a bit, you may miss Shriya Saran. As for Alia Bhatt, she is another docile woman, desperately pining for the return of her beloved—the sort to stand alone and stare into the horizon, waiting for her dream warrior to return. Yes, Rajamouli thinks up increasingly clever ways to spice up action (arrows being shot with attached grenades, for instance), but it gets harder and harder not to notice that while your senses are tingling with repetitive pleasures, your soul is left untouched and craves for more.. Tell him that the scene is of a man climbing a tree, and he will ensure that you are thrilled by the visual of an extraordinary man climbing an extraordinary tree in an extraordinary circumstance. The compassionate British damsel™ that Bheem falls in love with, is the classic naïve beauty we have seen time and time again—the sort of woman who would be oblivious to events around her, even as she invites hapless victims into her palace and seeks quick forgiveness when they get humiliated or threatened with death. The writing of this film is by Vijayendra Prasad, who we know by now as a lover of mythology. Ram’s flashback feels quick and uninventive, and without it, the film relies largely on the volatile Bheem-Ram friendship, which, too, gets largely defined by unsurprising montages. Weapon acquisition, on the other hand, isn’t exactly the most emotional idea out there, and so, he looks to overcome it with a flashback that is unfortunately hurried and cursory. Watch him sink the thorny edges of his whip into Bheem’s body, by communicating just the right balance of duty and emotion in his eyes. This acts as a catalyst for his wonderful imagination with which he thinks up some memorable set-pieces, built on the idea of fire and water. These portions stand as examples of this filmmaker’s eye for grand set-pieces and his ability to execute what must surely seem like daunting ideas on paper.

A big-screen spectacle (unknown)

RRR Telugu (Theatres) Director: S S Rajamouli Cast: NTR Jr, Ram Charan, Alia Bhatt, Ajay Devgn Rating: 3.5/5 If there is a director who keeps the old-school ...

The film belongs to Ram Charan and NTR Jr. Like the film’s concept , they make well-balanced fire and ice combo in performance though the latter wins it by a decent margin. And Rajamouli becomes a bit too self-indulgent as far as melodrama is concerned. You are left with one spectacle after the other and it’s a pure joy for those who found masala films to be jaded in recent times. But where Rajamouli stands out is in the manner he presents them on the big screen. ‘RRR’ is akin to a plate filled with more food than you can eat. He does that with such courage and conviction because of his unending, epic-like imagination.

‘RRR’ is high on action, long on time (unknown)

Ram Charan and NT Rama Rao Jr are in their element, but it's a bloated affair.

But what keep the film afloat and buzzing is the immense star power of the two lead actors who are out to save the world. Their invincibility is a given and that makes it a drag. ‘RRR’ works on the action sequences and CGI front, but goes overboard when it comes to the emotional narrative. While the stunt sequences are fun to watch and are superbly timed, the film which has a running time of over three hours is a bloated and bombastic affair. When Bheem is captured by the British and is being publicly flogged with nail-studded whips, he breaks out into a rousing song to stoke patriotism among his shocked Indian spectators. While you can marvel at the superbly choreographed action sequences, you have to remember that every emotion in this film is highly exaggerated.

Ram Charan, Jr NTR's RRR OTT release date is out (unknown)

RRR's story is set in pre-independence India is a fictionalised account of the lives of legendary freedom fighters Komaram Bheem and Alluri Sitarama Raju. Ram Charan plays Sitarama Raju, and Jr NTR plays Bheem. The film's leading actress, Alia Bhatt, plays Ram Charan's love interest in the comedy. Early reviews of the film have been overwhelmingly favourable, indicating that the epic period drama was well worth waiting for and exciting.

SS Rajamouli film is a visual treat that takes several creative liberties (unknown)

There are two ways to approach RRR, unquestioningly buy into the spectacle that it offers, and two, to read it with the real-life characters who inspired it ...

RRR is just the kind of visual treat that will bring people back to theatres. If this is indeed the case, the romance seems to have been force-fitted to suit a Rama-Seetha narrative. Wouldn’t the film have worked if he had chosen two entirely fictional characters and set them in this premise? There was some concern when the promos of the film came out that it would fan Islamophobia, considering Komaram Bheem fought against the Nizam rule, and he was seen dressed as a Muslim in the film’s teaser. This leads me to wonder why Rajamouli had to pick these icons if he wasn’t willing to engage with the politics that they represent. There are two ways to approach RRR - one, unquestioningly buy into the spectacle that it offers, and two, to read it with the real-life characters who inspired it and examine if the film pays homage to them or destroys their legacy. The bonhomie between the two is enjoyable, and the ‘Nattu’ song (MM Keeravani) is nothing short of explosive. In another such example, you see Ramaraju carry Akhtar on his back when the latter is tired – the roles are reversed in a later scene which is set in a completely different context. Bheem of RRR worships the Shiva lingam and Rama, speaks only Telugu and Hindi, and has no understanding of activism. There is no record of the two men meeting or fighting together in real life, but RRR asks ‘What if they did?’ The story that brings them together is Malli, a Gond tribal girl who is forcibly separated from her family and taken to the British Governor’s house in Delhi as a ‘pet’. Komaram Bheem (Junior NTR) takes on the daunting task of bringing her home. It’s a mind-boggling effort, and there are many such moments in the film when you are agape. This is one director who knows how to use a massive budget and give his audacious imagination a free run.

SS Rajamouli, Ram Charan, Jr NTR make a lavish meal of a fairly simple storyline-Entertainment News , Firstpost (unknown)

Ram Charan and Jr NTR's offscreen friendship and camaraderie seep into their onscreen performances, and the organic transformation from strangers to ...

Some may say it is not Rajamouli's best work but what RRR shows is that he is possibly India's only director who can make a lavish, large-scale commercial film with the simplest of storylines and the best of stars. Sample this — an impossible feat of two men hanging from a railway track and swinging on ropes to save a young boy from the river. However, this can easily be forgiven given the nature and magnitude of the film. Rajamouli intertwines two elements of matter — fire and water — in the form of Rama and Bheem in this action-packed drama. Set in the Delhi of 1920s British Raj, the film revolves around two revolutionaries — Rama Raju (Ram Charan), a police officer, and Bheem (Jr NTR), a Gond tribal. Like most Indian movies, revenge is the central theme in this flick too but this is where the similarity ends.

SS Rajamouli’s RRR is everything you expect it to be – freedom struggle on Baahubali scale (unknown)

The bromance between Alluri Sitarama Raju, played by Ram Charan, and Komaram Bheem, played by N.T. Rama Rao Jr., never fades, even for a second. In fact, it's ...

While Baahubali’s strength lay in its setting, RRR rests its foundation on the Indian freedom struggle and its heroes, who rose from humble backgrounds. Rajamouli relies heavily on mythology, be it his 2015 blockbuster Baahubali or RRR. From the reference to Ramayana with the Ram-Sita love story to the killing of the ‘Raavan’ by the two ‘brothers’, albeit from another mother, in this case, RRR is rife with undertones from the epics. Even in the fiercest battles, including the one between them, there is a tenderness of the bond they fostered. There is also a reference to Hathras as a place where Bheem takes temporary refuge. S. S. Rajamouli is well known for his detailing and visual effects. And their relationship is collaborative — one helps the other become a better person. Most British characters are portrayed as evil, except for Jennifer (played by Olivia Morris), much like Elisabeth Russell in Lagaan (2001), who falls in love with the ‘native’, Bheem. The caste angle is almost impossible to miss. S. S. Rajamouli’s RRR is a lot of things, but at its core, it is fulfilment of a connection between Ram and Bheem to take down the British. The bromance between Alluri Sitarama Raju, played by Ram Charan, and Komaram Bheem, played by N.T. Rama Rao Jr., never fades, even for a second. The caste lines are removed when the two are viewed through their friendship. In fact, it’s like the Captain America-Iron Man saga of friendship, betrayal and reconciliation. The film is a tale of good versus evil.
