(left) and Ram Charan. DVV Entertainment Indian epic “RRR” opened in March and became one of the country’s all-time hits. It’s a fictionalized look at two revolutionary figures during Britain’s rule of India in the 1920s.
The movie opened in the US in June and has become a social media sensation. Indian blockbuster “RRR” (also known as “Rise Roar Revolt”) is a highly fictionalized, action-packed three-hour telling of Alluri Sitarama Raju and Komaram Bheem, two real-life Indian revolutionaries during the British Empire’s rule of India in the 1920s. S.
S. Rajamouli, one of the premier filmmakers in Tollywood (a segment of Indian cinema dedicated to movies made in the Telugu language), directed the movie, which is currently the most expensive Indian film of all time. When it was released in March 2022, “RRR” broke several box-office records.
It’s currently the third-highest-grossing Indian movie ever. After hitting Netflix in May, “RRR” quickly became a sensation as fans flooded social media with clips of stars Ram Charan (as Raju) and N. T.
Rama Rao Jr. (Bheem) performing incredible dance moves and some of the most amazing action sequences you’ll ever see in a movie. 8.
Raju takes on an angry mob all by himself. Ram Charan as Alluri Sitarama Raju in “RRR. “DVV EntertainmentRajamouli cleverly introduces us to Raju in the movie as its villain.
Playing an Indian officer in the British Army, Raju impresses his commanders when he single-handedly takes on an angry mob of hundreds after his commander wants one of them arrested. What unfolds is a glorious sequence of choreographed fighting. Raju jumps the barbed-wire fence separating the British soldiers and the angry mob.
With just a baton in his hand, he begins to swing at anyone in sight in an unwavering quest to arrest the man. There’s even a moment when he’s engulfed by the mob and the camera shows how Raju claws his way out the claustrophobic space. Despite this intimidating sequence, we come to realize later in the movie that Raju is not the villain.
Joining the British Army and raising up its ranks was his master plan to gain access to a warehouse full of guns that he could then steal and give to his brethren in their fight for independence from the British. 7. Bheem getting chased by a tiger.
N. T. Rama Rao Jr.
plays Komaram Bheem in “RRR. “DVV EntertainmentOur other hero in the movie, Bheem, is introduced through a wild cat-and-mouse sequence. In an attempt to trap a wolf, a shirtless Bheem is seen running through the wilderness outside Delhi leading it to a trap.
But suddenly, a tiger starts chasing Bheem. The chase ends with the tiger getting caught in a net, but not before the rope holding it breaks and Bheem must use his strength to attach it again, all while the snarling tiger is just inches from his face. 6.
Bheem unleashing fighting animals. Bheem with some friends. DVV EntertainmentThe movie has a lengthy disclaimer at the start noting that no animals were harmed during the filming and that they are all computer-generated.
It’s likely because of this scene. Bheem is on a quest to rescue a young girl from his village who was taken from her family by the wife of the evil governor Scott Buxton (Ray Stevenson). Once Bheem discovers where she’s located, he unleashes hell on the British soldiers based at Buxton’s compound thanks to a collection of wild animals.
To infiltrate the compound Bheem enlists a driver with a truck to break through the complex’s gates. The truck then skids on its side and a cover on the side of the truck rolls up to reveal Bheem and a group of animals made up of tigers, bears, leopards, wolves, and deer. With a mix of slow-motion shots and thrilling CGI, the animals run wild, killing soldiers in their path.
Meanwhile, Bheem fights his way closer to the girl. 5. Raju and Bheem fighting.
Our heroes do battle. DVV EntertainmentDuring Bheem’s battle with help from the animals, he’s suddenly confronted by Raju, who still is in the guise of a British officer. Bheem’s shocked by this as they had become friends earlier in the movie.
Bheem’s realization leads to the two having an intense battle, which also highlights the movie’s main theme of how Raju is synonymous with fire while Bheem is water. Raju fights with a torch while Bheem uses a hose shooting water. 4.
Bheem and Raju’s first meeting is a daring rescue at a bridge. A friendship forms. DVV EntertainmentEarlier in the movie, before the two fight one another, they quickly form a friendship by saving a young boy.
In yet another fantastic imaginative scene, a young boy finds himself trapped in water surrounded by fire after a train on a bridge crashes down around him. As many watch, Raju, who is on the bridge, gets the attention of Bheem, who is on the ground near the water. The two decide to save the boy.
With Bheem on a motorcycle and Raju on a horse, the two grab ends of a long rope and leap off opposite sides of the bridge. Bheem grabs the boy before a flaming train car falls onto him. Bheem then tosses the boy in midair to Raju.
Raju catches the boy and throws a flag he was holding to Bheem. As Bheem’s momentum pulls him back into the flames, he wraps the flag around him to shield himself from the fire. Meanwhile, Raju drops the boy safely away from danger and swings back to Bheem who has come out of the flames unscathed.
The two then lock arms at the bottom of the bridge. What a way to start a friendship!3. Bheem and Raju team up for the final battle.
It’s payback time. DVV EntertainmentAfter close to three hours of seeing this duo become friends and then enemies, these two become allies again once Bheem learns who Raju really is. After breaking Raju out of prison (more on that later), Bheem sets out to take down the governor, Scott Buxton, and his men.
And Raju is alongside him. Set in the wilderness, the two systematically wipe out Scott’s special forces unit. Filled with lots of explosions, Bheem destroying men by swinging a motorcycle, and Raju looking like Rambo with his bow-and-arrow work, it is a thrilling finale.
2. Raju fights on Bheem’s shoulders. This movie is unlike anything you’ve ever seen.
DVV EntertainmentBefore their glorious final battle, Bheem first has to spring Raju from prison. By this point, Raju has been outed by Scott as a revolution sympathizer and throws him in prison. Once Bheem realizes Raju’s real intentions and has already saved the young girl he set out to rescue, his new mission is to free Raju.
In an amazing sequence, Bheem frees Raju but, due to his injuries, the only way Bheem can get him out is for Raju to sit on Bheem’s shoulders. This is reminiscent to earlier in the movie when Bheem was on Raju’s shoulders after being tired from dancing at a party (and boy did he dance). Racing through the prison grounds, Bheem and Raju are a wrecking crew as Bheem slams soldiers to the ground, and Raju, above him sporting two rifles, takes out anyone in sight.
To conclude the sequence, the two climb a tower with Raju still on Bheem’s shoulders. They backflip to the top of it and then leap to clear a wall. Raju shoots soldiers mid-jump, and they land on the other side to run into the forest.
1. The suspenders dance scene. Pure cinematic magic.
DVV EntertainmentIt’s the sequence that has blazed through social media. Not just because of its fun dance moves, but also its commentary on the racism Indians suffered at the hands of the British in the 1920s. Bheem and Raju are invited to a party by Scott’s niece, Jenny (Olivia Morris), who has a crush on Bheem.
While there, Bheem is bullied by a British male partygoer. As the Indian servants look on disgusted by how Bheem is treated, the British man continues to embarrass Bheem by showing off his dance moves. Then Raju shows up.
He asks the man about another dance move. The British man doesn’t know it, and suddenly an epic dance number begins with Bheem and Raju going into full choreographed bliss, including a synchronized dance with their suspenders. The duo completely embarrasses the man as they get the whole party to dance, which then leads to a competition as everyone tries to be the last to do a specific dance move.
The women quickly root for Bheem and Raju. As male white partygoers continually collapse to the floor in exhaustion, it comes down to Bheem and Raju up against that British partygoer who embarrassed Bheem. He also falls, leaving now just Bheem and Raju dancing.
Raju sees Jenny rooting for Bheem and acts like he’s cramping and falls to the ground. Bheem wins. The two leave the party with Raju carrying an exhausted Bheem on his shoulders.
