Zeeshan Ayyub, the Indian actor who played the role of Alluri Sitarama Raju in the recently released film "RRR," has expressed his support for the film ahead of the upcoming Oscars nominations. He believes that the film has the potential to open a "really big door" for Indian cinema and showcase the country's talent on a global stage.
Directed by S.S. Rajamouli, "RRR" tells the story of two freedom fighters, Alluri Sitarama Raju and Komaram Bheem, who fought against the British Raj in India during the early 20th century. The film stars some of India's biggest actors, including Ram Charan and Jr. NTR.
In a recent interview, Ayyub said, "I am really excited about the possibility of 'RRR' being nominated for an Oscar. The film has been received extremely well by audiences and critics, and I think it would be a great opportunity for Indian cinema to be recognized on a global stage. It will open a really big door for our industry."
Ayyub is not the only one who believes in the film's potential. The film has already been selected as the Indian entry for the Best International Feature Film category at the 93rd Academy Awards, which is a huge achievement in itself.
The film has been praised for its stunning visuals, powerful performances, and engaging storyline. The film has been in the making for several years, with a budget of more than $70 million, making it one of the most expensive Indian films ever made.
While the film received mixed reviews, it was a box office hit, grossing more than $200 million worldwide.
As the Oscars nominations are set to be announced on March 15, fans of "RRR" and Indian cinema will have to wait and see if the film will be nominated in the Best International Feature Film category. If it is, it will be a major milestone for Indian cinema and could open the door for more recognition and opportunities in the future.
