Exclusive: S.S. Rajamouli is currently assembling a production team for a new movie about the birth and rise of Indian Cinema.
Rajamouli, whose Rrr racked up an Oscar win and over $166M WW, is not directing, we understand. At $130M, Rrr is the third highest grossing movie in Indian cinema. Rajamouli is ‘presenting’ which over in India is a bigger title than producer on a film, though akin to how Hollywood views the role of a producer.
The new biopic about Indian Cinema is not yet titled, though reps for Rajamouli promise it’s a “magnum opus telling” which will be told “on a huge scale and canvas.”
Rrr followed the fictitious telling of two legendary revolutionaries and their journey away from home before they started fighting for their country in the 1920s.
Rrr won an original song Oscar this past spring for its single “Naatu Naatu” written by M.M. Keeravani and Chandrabose.

K-pop star Jung Kook, who is the youngest member of BTS left fans awed when he started humming the Academy Award winning track ‘Naatu Naatu’ from SS Rajamouli’s global blockbuster film ‘Rrr’. This incident happened, when a Korean fan had asked the K-pop star if he knew the track to which he started humming the tune.
The interaction came on the singer’s Weverse platform where BTS along with many other K-pop stars frequently interact with their fans. There, a fan asked if he had seen ‘Rrr’ to which the 25-year old began humming the track knowing it completely by heart.
For the BTS Army which is what the group’s fan club is called, and particularly for Indian members of that club, this was indeed a very surprising moment and a cause for much joy.
One of the India fans wrote: “I am genuinely impressed that he acknowledges the existence of Telugu cinema.
