As it is known, the makers of ‘RRR’ are now hell-bent on pushing the film for an Oscars nomination as they joined the FYC (For Your Consideration) campaign and sent out 14 nominations for the Oscars in various categories including Best Picture, Best Director, Best Actor, Best Original Song and many others. The most interesting one is definitely sending Alia Bhatt’s name in the Best Supporting Actress category.
While Best Film, Best Actors, Best Screenplay and Best Direction can be understood, a lot of people are scratching their heads over nominating Alia Bhatt for the Oscars. Alia is a very good actress and there is no denying that fact but her role in ‘RRR’ is very small. All she has is one scene where she explains Ram’s backstory to Bheem. There is no other prominent scene of hers in the film. It is safe to say that Shriya and Alia had almost the same screen time in the film and Olivia Morris comparatively had more than the two Indian actresses.
Alia played a lot of beautiful roles in her career and her performances in ‘Raazi’, ‘Gangubai Khatiawadi’ and others are award-worthy. But sending her name for the prestigious Oscars, especially for Sita’s role in ‘RRR’ is a bit silly according to me. While they have sent 14 nominations, getting at least one nomination itself is considered as a huge achievement. Let us wait and see if it happens or not.
‘RRR’ is produced by DVV Danayya on a budget of over 400 crores. The lead actors delivered stupendous performances and MM Keeravani is the music composer who is one of the main pillars in the film’s success. NTR will be seen as Komaram Bheem while Ram Charan plays the role of Alluri Seetha Ramaraju in this massive film which is set in the backdrop of the pre-Independence era.

Why Boyapati Srinu Still Has Producers Lining Up Despite Recent Setback
Even after the disappointing result of Akhanda 2, many might assume that director Boyapati Srinu’s market would slow down. But surprisingly, the opposite seems to be happening.
In Tollywood, at least two to three producers are reportedly approaching Boyapati with strong interest, requesting him to helm their next projects. Each producer is using their own network, influence, and strategies to convince him. While discussions are ongoing, nothing has been finalized yet.
The bigger question remains — which hero will come on board? That decision appears to be secondary for now. Producers are ready with investments and are simply waiting for clarity on the casting front.
Interestingly, financially strong individuals who aspire to launch themselves as heroes are said to be particularly eager to collaborate with Boyapati. Earlier, Gali Janardhan Reddy’s son, Keerthi Reddy, reportedly met Boyapati with keen interest in doing a film under his direction. Sources suggest that the youngster is highly determined to make this collaboration happen.
However, it is still unclear what Boyapati himself is planning. There is no confirmed information about which star’s dates he intends to seek or which banner he may choose for his next project. Meetings are happening, but discussions seem to be staying at a preliminary stage.
At the same time, there is buzz that Boyapati is also considering stepping into Bollywood. A Hindi story is said to be ready, and with many Bollywood actors currently showing interest in working with South Indian directors, securing dates may not be a major hurdle.
For now, producers continue to compete and push hard, hoping to sign Boyapati for their next big venture. Despite setbacks, his brand of high-voltage mass cinema still appears to command attention in the industry.
