S. S. Rajamouli is the Movie Director of RRR, Rise, Roar, Revolt, whose song has been nominated at the 95th Academy Awards on 12th March 2023. I like the rhythm and the perfectly syncronized moves of the two protagonists, engaging the crowd in a dancing competition. They infuse adrenaline, a sensational willingess to move and dance with them. They are graceful and energetic, and our hearts beat faster. It feels like a joyous blast.
I love Indian cinema, and Bollywood movies, and I still recall the wondrous soundtrack of Slumdog Millionaire (2008) that made my heart and mind wander and imagine India. I enjoy the enthusiasm and the joy that brims out of me when i see people dancing, and also when i dance too. The beat pulsates through the body, the flying feet and the flashing eyes!
About filmmaking in general, i love the idea of making movies, and I think the best secret for a successful movie is the soundtrack that accompanies the motion pictures and the emotional, adventurous and action-oriented storyline.
The list of Nominees for Best Original Scores (songs) is long & of prolific artists & songwriters. My favorite are Lady Gaga – Hold my hand from the movie Top Gun Maverick and Naatu Naatu from the movie RRR. Larger than life!
