The period action epic RRR (2022), directed by SS Rajamouli, starring Ram Charan and Jr. NTR in the lead roles, has achieved widespread approval in the Western audience, who is completely enthralled with the Telugu blockbuster. Edgar Wright, a well-known Hollywood director, is the newest to jump on the RRR bandwagon.
Edgar Wright, the director of numerous critically and financially successful movies including Baby Driver (2017), Last Night in Soho (2021), Scott Pilgrim vs. the World (2010), and Shaun of the Dead, shared on Twitter early on Sunday, August 14, that he had just finished watching RRR and thought it was "an absolute blast.
Finally saw RRRMovie on the big screen at the BFI with a great crowd. What an absolute blast. So entertaining. The only film I have ever seen where the intermission card itself got a round of applause.

He tweeted, "Finally saw RRRMovie on the big screen at the BFI with a great crowd. What an absolute blast. So entertaining. The only film I have ever seen where the intermission card itself got a round of applause."
Many reviews have already named the pre-intermission action-packed moment where Jr. NTR's Komaram Bheem and Ram Charan's Alluri Sitaram Raju face off as the best scene of the year.
SS Rajamouli's film, which also stars Bollywood stars Alia Bhatt and Ajay Devgn in cameo roles as Ram Charan's wife and father, has previously received accolades from directors of Doctor Strange (2016), Guardians of the Galaxy (2014), and Avengers: Endgame (2019).
