SS Rajamouli's 'RRR: Behind and Beyond' Release Generates Controversy

The much-anticipated documentary 'RRR: Behind and Beyond', a behind-the-scenes look at the making of blockbuster film RRR, has sparked controversy with its limited theatrical release in India. Despite generating buzz with its trailer, the documentary has secured zero screens in major metro cities such as Mumbai, New Delhi, Kolkata, Bengaluru, and Chennai.

The decision to limit the documentary's release has raised eyebrows, especially considering the film's widespread acclaim, including an Academy Award win for Best Original Song in 2023. The Telugu version of 'RRR: Behind and Beyond' has been granted a single theater in Hyderabad, while the English version has been allocated several screens. This move could significantly impact the documentary's reach, possibly limiting its audience to a niche demographic.

The release of 'RRR: Behind and Beyond' has also sparked renewed attention to the making of the hit film 'RRR', which starred Ram Charan and Jr NTR in pivotal roles. One scene from the documentary shows Ram Charan expressing feelings of jealousy towards his co-star Jr NTR during filming, with director SS Rajamouli likening the actors to "two tigers" to work with. This candid moment adds to the rich behind-the-scenes narrative of the making of 'RRR', offering fans a glimpse into the collaborative process behind the acclaimed film.

As fans eagerly await the release of 'RRR: Behind and Beyond' on OTT platforms, Ram Charan's upcoming film release deserves some attention. Shah Rukh Khan recently celebrated the one-year anniversary of his film 'Dunki', commemorating the occasion with a special on-screen tribute. To honor this milestone, a quiz was released to test fans' knowledge of the film. However, the true excitement lies ahead for fans, as the true test of the movie's longevity will only come when it gains further traction with its OTT release.
