More on Naatu Naatu's historic Oscar win
Naatu Naatu scored a win in the Best Original Song category at the 95th Academy Awards. The song was nominated against the likes of Diane Warren's Applause from Women Talking, Rihanna's Lift Me Up from Black Panther: Wakanda Forever, Mitski, David Byrne, and Ryan Lott's This Is a Life from Everything Everywhere All at Once, and Lady Gaga's Hold My Hand from Top Gun: Maverick.
The Oscar win by Naatu Naatu is historic in nature, as it is the first song by an Indian production to win in the Best Original Song category. Composer MM Keeravaani and lyricist Chandrabose made their way to the stage in order to accept the award. Keeravaani broke into a song and thanked the team of RRR as well as everything involved in the making of the song.
Naatu Naatu's performance at the Oscars
Naatu Naatu was performed at the Oscars as well. Singers Rahul Siplingunj and Kaala Bhairava performed the song alongside an ensemble of dancers, and nearly recreated the iconic music video of the song to perfection. Ram Charan and Jr NTR did not perform at the Oscars, citing the promotion schedule ahead of the Oscars and lack of time for preparation as the reasons.
