Rise Roar Revolt (RRR) is one of the most successful South Indian films of this year. It made a name not only in India but in the west as well.
The proof of its success is that Variety Magazine has included its leading actor Jr NTR in Oscar prediction list in the ‘Best Actor category.’
Set in 1920s, RRR is the story about two legendary revolutionaries and their journey far away from home. They return home to start fighting back against British colonialists.
