Synopsis for RRR
RISE ROAR REVOLT. A fictional history of two legendary revolutionaries’ journeys away from home before they began fighting for their country in the 1920s. [Source: Letterboxd]
i agree with your analysis on RRR. Both the lead actors characters were perfectly balanced and at the same time the story went smooth and without any compromise. Remember, the lead actors were super stars with huge fan following in South India, so it was a challenge to balance their screentime. Definitely a must watch on a global level even if you don’t understand Telugu or Hindi. The sub titles will be more than enough to convey what’s happening.
