And the Oscar for Best Original Song goes to 'Naatu Naatu'.....
In a historic moment for Indian cinema and music, the Academy Awards proved their recognition of cultural diversity and global talent when they awarded the Oscar for Best Original Song to the lively Telugu-language dance number "Naatu Naatu" from the blockbuster film "RRR".
Composed by M.M. Keeravani and written by Chandrabose, the song captures the infectious energy of the film's lead actors, N.T. Rama Rao Jr. and Ram Charan, who play charismatic characters in an anti colonialist epic set in the 1920s.
"Naatu Naatu" is the first song from an Indian film to win an Academy Award, beating out formidable contenders from Hollywood blockbusters like "Black Panther: Wakanda Forever" and "Top Gun: Maverick."
The elated RRR crew spilled into the lobby, already planning their post-Oscars partying, as they celebrated this remarkable achievement. Singers Rahul Sipligunj and Kaala Bhairava, who recorded the song for the "RRR" soundtrack, delivered a thrilling performance on the Oscars stage, further adding to the song's infectious energy.
As the hit song became a grassroots favorite, it was translated into Hindi, Tamil, Kannada, and Malayalam, reaching audiences worldwide and cementing its place as a cultural phenomenon.
This win is a testament to the power of cultural diversity and the incredible talent of Indian cinema and music. Jay-Ho! RRR team, Congratulations for this incredible achievement!
