Would have been good to hear some applause from the audience beyond the #RRR table
Maybe it took everyone by surprise? Maybe people don't clap at these events?
Anyways, this is a huge moment for Indian Cinema & TOLLYWOOD. Thank you #RRR & #Keeravani sirpic.twitter.com/cBLD3jvE2f

It’s looking increasingly likely RRR could bag a nomination at the Oscars 2023 but some like Hollywood producer Jason Blum and many more are convinced the movie would even win Best Picture. Though there’s also the possibility for Naatu Naatu song to steal the spotlight at the Academy Awards so let’s hope the nomination reveal sheds more light on RRR’s Oscar dream.
