In March this year, in the “Notes on a Scene” series featured in the US magazine Vanity Fair, SS Rajamouli, the director of RRR, shed light on the process behind the creation of the song ‘Naatu Naatu’. According to Rajamouli, the essence of the entire RRR story is encapsulated within the 10 minutes of the pivotal ‘Naatu Naatu’ scene and the accompanying song.
Although Ram Charan and Jr NTR (portraying Bheem in the movie) are seen dancing in the song, Rajamouli clarified that it is, in fact, a fight scene integral to the storyline. The song commences on a negative note as an Englishman subjects them to humiliation.
The composition of the song ‘Naatu Naatu’ is credited to MM Keeravani, featuring lyrics penned by Chandrabose. The soulful rendition of the track was recorded by Rahul Sipligunj and Kaala Bhairava.
