A post shared by Alia Bhatt ☀️ (@aliaabhatt)

RRR is set in the backdrop of 1920s north India under the colonial rule of Britain. It is a fictionalised account of Telugu tribal leaders Alluri Sitarama Raju (played by Ram Charan) and Komaram Bheem (played by Jr NTR).

Baahubali fame Rajamouli and his father K. V. Vijayendra Prasad have reimagined the formative years of these leaders by taking advantage of the fact that there are no records as to what happened in their lives while they were away from their homeland.

RRR was originally planned as a July 30, 2020 release. However, the unforeseen delays, including those caused by injuries suffered by Jr NTR and Ram Charan during production, forced the filmmakers to push the release date. And then, the outbreak of coronavirus and subsequent lockdown again disrupted the production.
