Ram Charan had shared how it feels to be at the Golden Globes with his film RRR before the film’s team won the award. He talked to The Hollywood Reporter ahead of the award ceremony and said, “It’s a surreal moment right now, I have no words to explain how much hard work the whole team put in and coming from South of India, and coming to the ‘mecca’ of films and being appreciated, it just gives us more energy to come back and do better films. I would love to work with one of the top directors here, I want them to experience us. Cinema is coming together, thanks to the pandemic, yes there are a lot of downsides, but the upside is that everybody was exposed to a lot of films across the globe.”
Expressing how it feels when the audience dances to “Naatu Naatu” in the cinema halls, the actor added, “Can’t ask for anything better as an actor, seeing this reaction, sometimes you are speechless, your heart is filled, you are overwhelmed and it gives us the responsibility to do better.”
