For the uninitiated, before the Golden Globes, RRR’s tickets were sold out within 98 seconds at Los Angeles’ screening at TCL Chinese Theatre IMAX. Addressing the same, Jr NTR told the LA Times newspaper, “This was faster than cooking Maggi. That’s the fastest food you can actually cook back in India!”

JR NTR then praised director SS Rajamouli and said, “I always felt this man was not destined to make only films in Telugu or in India. He is one of those rare phenomenons who can travel the globe with his films. With each film, he’s only gotten better. I feel that RRR was his plan of taking the West. What makes us very proud is that a small industry from South India, Tollywood, and one movie called RRR could open the gates to global cinema and bring us here.”
