1 of 1

Mumbai Superstar NTR Jr says the steps of his iconic number ‘Naatu Naatu’ from the film ‘RRR’ were not difficult, the difficulty was to sync the song. For this song, he and his co-star used to practice for 3 hours daily. His legs are still hurting from the shoot of the song. In an interview to Entertainment Tonight, NTR Jr was asked if you thought the film would cross all global lines and be loved by all.

In response to the question, the actor said: I don’t know, but the experience of shooting the song, I have been telling this… my feet still ache.

The dance steps were not difficult but what was difficult was the ‘sync’. We used to practice dance everyday for three hours. We used to rehearse it during the shooting of that song. We rehearsed for that song a week before the shoot and we were rehearsing on the set as well. It was only for synchronization.

How does it feel to add an Academy Award-nominee to your list of accomplishments?

NTR Jr replied with a smile: What more can an actor ask for, what more can a filmmaker ask to be a part of the biggest festival of cinema globally, the Oscars.

He said that the big day is when one gets a chance to walk the red carpet not as an actor but as an Indian.

He said, for that day, I think we will not walk as ‘RRR’ actors. I am going to walk on the red carpet as an Indian, it is a matter of pride for me, my country is in my heart.

SS Rajamouli’s ‘RRR’ has bagged a Best Original Song nomination at the 95th Oscar Awards for its livewire track ‘Naatu Naatu’. The grand event will take place on March 12.

The track, composed by MM Keeravani, became the first Indian and Asian song to win the Best Original Song award at the 80th Golden Globe Awards in January.

On the red carpet, we will carry the whole nation in our hearts:

NTR Jr is in Los Angeles to attend the Oscars for the Academy Awards, where ‘Naatu Naatu’ from action drama ‘RRR’ has been nominated in the ‘Best Original Song’ category after a stupendous win at the Golden Globes. The actor’s fans are excited to see their hero on the red carpet at the Oscars. In a recent interview with KTLA, a Los Angeles-based news channel, the global icon revealed that he will not be alone but the entire country will walk the red carpet with him.

NTR Jr said, I don’t think it will be NTR Jr or Komaram Bheem who is going to walk the red carpet. It will be all the people of India who will be walking the red carpet. We will be carrying the whole nation in our hearts as we walk the red carpet, I am looking forward to it.

In the interview, the actor revealed that he is looking forward to seeing music composer MM Keeravani and singers Rahul Sipligunj and Kaal Bhairav ​​performing on the Oscars stage.
