In a moment that history will remember forever indeed - RRR has won the Oscar for Best Original Song for the foot-tapping song, Naatu Naatu. It was predicted and expected that Naatu Naatu has the best odds to win the big prize but it finally happened.

Everything about RRR has been iconic from the get-go and the burst of the film in the USA has been surreal to say the least. From making waves in every manner to being centre stage at the grandest award stage and even having the song performed at the ceremony it was indeed absolutely epic.

After creating waves at the Indian box office, RRR's rise on the global circuit initially came in as a surprise. What began with a few reviewers watching the film and being blown away by it on the streaming platform gradually became a rage with more and more people being aware about the film.

Before one knew, RRR saw the director, S S Rajamouli, leading stars Ram Charan and NTR Jr. appearing on multiple red carpets, interviews on American talk shows talking about the film.

The film was considered one of the ten 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. Among other accolades, RRR became the third Indian film and first Telugu film to receive nominations at the Golden Globe Awards, including Best Foreign Language Film, and won Best Original Song for "Naatu Naatu", making it the first Asian nomination to win the award. The song was also the sixth Indian song to be nominated for the Oscars. RRR also won the Best Foreign Language Film and the Best Song award at the 28th Critics' Choice Awards.
