Actors Ram Charan and Jr. NTR accompanied director SS Rajamouli and music composer MM Keeravani at the awards ceremony.

The award will be seen as a good luck charm for the Indian film ahead of the Oscar nominations on Jan 24, 2023.

Generally, only English-language films have always won the Oscars.

But in 2020, the Korean film Parasite broke the tradition.

The stars from Indian Cinema Industry, involving multiple languages, poured in their congratulations to team RRR.
