RRR is riding high in the west and winning honours from over the world including Critics’ Choice Awards and Golden Globes. International success has been good for director SS Rajamouli. The historical drama featuring Ram Charan and Jr. NTR received appreciation from several foreign filmmakers and artists. With such widespread popularity, has Rajamouli been tempted to produce a Hollywood movie? To find out the director’s plans, continue reading.
Following a significant Golden Globes victory, SS Rajamouli had encounters with directors James Cameron and Steven Spielberg. Both filmmakers praised SS Rajamouli’s RRR for its incredible inventiveness. Rajamouli is anticipated to step up his game in foreign film after Ram Charan and JR. NTR’s aspirations for Hollywood were questioned.
Prior to the Oscars, the Telugu writer-director has been visiting RRR screenings in America and promoting the movie. The reaction he got for RRR in the west astounded him. The director said he loves the end product and the creative freedom of his productions in India. He mentioned filming a movie in Hollywood as well, but he is unsure about what to do next.
Rajamouli stated that making a movie in Hollywood is everyone’s goal, and he is no different, in an interview with the Awardist podcast of the American magazine Entertainment Weekly. The director is willing to try new things but is unsure of where to begin and is confused. The director did say, though, that he would contribute to a team effort.
In India, the director is respected and in a position of power, but in Hollywood, he will likely need to collaborate with others to produce a major picture. In India, according to SS Rajamouli, he is in charge and nobody instructs him how to produce movies. If he does a Hollywood movie, working with someone will most likely be his first step.
