The 28th Critics Choice Awards were presented, and SS Rajamouli’s RRR once again brought honour to India by winning two awards. Both the Best Foreign Language Film and Best Song awards went to RRR on Monday IST.
M M Keeravaani said, “Every award that Naatu Naatu is getting is special, but the Critics Choice Award is more special since RRR also won in the Best Foreign Language Film category. It was a double triumph for us. I feel elated.”
The Best Director, Best Picture, and Best Visual Effects nominations all went to RRR. The movie had already won a Golden Globe for Best Original Song for the song Naatu Naatu, despite competition from Rihanna’s Lift Me Up. This increases RRR’s prospects of not just being nominated but also winning the coveted golden prize at the Oscars in March.
