Whereas, RRR, directed by SS Rajamouli, stars Ram Charan and Jr NTR in the lead roles. The film has also won a Golden Globe Award in the 'Best Original Song' category for its wildly popular dance number 'Naatu Naatu'.

The 2023 Oscars were held at the Dolby Theatre at Ovation Hollywood on Sunday, 12 March, and was hosted by Jimmy Kimmel.
