SS Rajamouli Breaks Down This Oscar-Winning Scene From 'RRR' (No Film School)

'RRR' director SS Rajamouli breaks down the Oscar-winning 'Naatu Naatu' sequences. Here is what filmmakers can learn from this scene breakdown.

While the dance sequence can be in service of the fans, providing them with moments that they would want to see and replicate themselves, the number is always in service of pushing the story forward. Although he wanted the final shot of the dance sequences to be one take, Rajamouli understood that specific shots were needed to establish the mood and story progression for the audiences to know where the story ends when the song is finished.“Dance is not about how acrobatic you are, how perfectly you can do your step,” Rajamouli says about the dance sequences in his films. Loose suspenders had to be used so the actors could move them easily, then they were replaced with tight suspenders throughout the rest of the number. When Rakshith saw that suspenders were a part of the costumes, he asked if he could incorporate them into the number. The first thing that comes to Rajamouli when he looks at the sequence is the location. The colors of the palace and the size of the grounds were exactly what was needed for the scene. Only then can [the] audience really get the enjoyment out of your dance. Rajamouli’s shot composition emphasizes the importance of the dance’s energy by never losing focus on the characters’ steps. The Ukrainian team informed him that it would be possible to film at the location since Rakshith’s choreography was tailored to both Charan’s and Rama Rao Jr.’s body language to craft a spectacular dance that their fans expected to see. Rama Rao Jr.) and Alluri Sitarama Raju (Ram Charan) at screenings, and a music video that is sure to put a smile on your face.

'Naatu Naatu' From 'RRR' Wins Best Original Song (The New York Times)

The rollicking dance hit beat out two songs featuring American pop megastars.

Written by Diane Warren, the song, [“Applause,”](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VAHorHpPqb4) would have been a major victory for the songwriter after 13 previous nominations in the same category and no wins. The nominated song from “Everything Everywhere” was “This Is a Life,” by the indie-rock band Son Lux, featuring Mitski and David Byrne. [“Tell It Like a Woman,”](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dOREIAfmj_o) which features seven short stories with female protagonists, some of them fictional and some inspired by true events. The hymnlike ballad with a prominent string section was the pop star’s first Rahman’s tune for the British-made “Slumdog Millionaire” — but it is the first from an Indian production. It’s about everything that happened in our own country, in our own village; something you cherish for life.”
