Deepika’s fans poured in their love for her, and wrote encouraging messages in the comments section. One person jotted down all the global brands she is endorsing and called her a “global brand ambassador”, they wrote, “Levi’s, Louis Vuitton, Cartier, Adidas, Qatar Airways, pottery barn global brand ambassador 🔥.” Since Deepika shared these pictures on the night of MET gala in New York, which was attended by Alia Bhatt, Priyanka Chopra and others, a confused fan asked her, “R u attending Met !????,” whereas yet another person wrote, “You created history for sure DP!!!!.”
While introducing “Naatu Naatu”, the Oscar-winning song from SS Rajamouli’s RRR, Deepika had said at the Academy Awards this year, “An irresistibly catchy chorus, electrifying beats and killer dance moves to match have made this song a global sensation. It plays during a pivotal scene in ‘RRR’, a movie about the friendship between real-life Indian revolutionaries Alluri Sitarama Raju and Komaram Bheem. In addition to being sung in Telugu and illustrating the film’s anti-colonialist themes, it’s also a total banger!”
She had added, “It’s earned millions of views on Youtube and Tik Tok. Has audiences dancing in movie theatres all around the world and is also the first song ever from Indian production to be nominated for an Oscar. Do you know Naatu? Because if you don’t you’re about to. From the film RRR this is Naatu Naatu.”
‘Naatu Naatu’ won in the Best Original Song category at the 95th Academy Awards, beating heavyweights like Lady Gaga and Rihanna’s numbers. Lyricist and music composer Chandrabose and MM Keeravani received the awards for the song.
