S. S. Rajamouli presents RRR in Paris, hailed for epic storytelling

Indian director S. S. Rajamouli showcased his latest blockbuster RRR at a special screening in Paris’s Grand Rex theatre. The event included a masterclass where Rajamouli discussed his cinematic philosophy, his upbringing in a film‑making family, and the importance of cinema in India.

RRR, released on 29 July 2026, has been praised for its spectacular visuals, high‑octane action and the Oscar‑winning song "Naatu Naatu". Critics note that the film departs from typical Bollywood conventions, offering only one standout dance sequence while maintaining a fast‑paced narrative. The French screening highlighted the film’s international appeal and its success in both Indian and global markets.
