Millions of Indians across the globe are once again cheering up for Rajamouli and his RRR team to win big at the 95th Oscar Awards ceremony, which will be held at Dolby Theatre in Los Angeles, on March 12, Sunday. The film has been nominated under the Best Song Category for the dance-busting number 'Naatu Naatu' composed by MM Keeravani. In addition, singers Rahul Sipligunj and Kaala Bhairava will perform the number on the prestigious Oscar stage. The other nominees in the category include Applause (Tell It Like a Woman), Hold My Hand (Top Gun Maverick), Lift Me Up (Black Pather Wakanda Forever), and This is a Life (Everything Everywhere All at Once).

Meanwhile, the much-awaited NTR30 will have Jhanvi Kapoor as the leading lady--also marking her Tollywood debut. The action thriller is directed by Kortala Siva.
