ALIA BHATT’S SERIES OF FIRSTS WHILE SHOOTING RRR

SS Rajamouli's period action drama RRR reached a figure of 900 crores worldwide in just ten days. RRR can be considered Alia Bhatt's stellar debut in South Films. Alia Bhatt played the role of Sita in the movie, which also stars Jr NTR and Ram Charan in lead roles. Alia recently shared a video on her YouTube channel titled, "The first of many on RRR by Alia Bhatt". In the video, she describes the things that she has done for the first time while shooting for RRR. She recalls how she learned and spoke Telugu for the first time for the movie, and learned both the lyrics and dance to Sholay as the lyrics were kept strictly confidential. She also shares that she had biryani on set for the first time. The Gangubai actress also shares her experience working with SS Rajamouli, she talks about how the director would narrate stories from Amar Chitra Katha. The video makes for a very interesting watch, as it gives us a lot of insights into the hit movie.

RAM CHARAN GIFTS GOLD COINS TO RRR CREW

Ram Charan, who is currently basking in the success of his latest release RRR, has stated that while he expected the film to be a hit, he never expected it to top the global box office on its first weekend. “I did expect it to be a big hit, but the No 1 tag I never expected - that was a beautiful surprise. That was mind-blowing for us, even for Rajamouli I feel." Ram Charan, who plays Alluri Sitaram Raju in the movie has reportedly gifted 10 gram gold coins each to all his RRR unit crew and other assistants. The actor hosted a breakfast and invited the team. After breakfast, Ram Charan reportedly gave one kg. sweetbox with 1 Tola gold coin to them. The gold coin had the RRR symbol embossed on one side and Ram Charan's name on the other side.
