Rajamouli sir's vision is what makes his films one of a kind in the world. RRR is definitely the best Large scale Technical film ever to come out of India. Rajamouli sir has that knack for Storytelling and him being Indian makes me fell proud. He’s already one of the best filmmakers in the World but in the coming years, he’ll be the Greatest Filmmaker of our time.

These days people are not willing to pay attention even for 30 seconds/few minutes especially with shorts and reels that have become so popular but at the same time we see people are ready to consume web series with multiple seasons. I think it's always the right content and good screenplay will engage the audience.

What wonderful insights... We have just completed a dual language Film... With South actor Bharath and it's a film based out of Goa... It also has a Tamil version and that's how I was put in touch with this link to understand the nuances of cutting films for the South... The genius of Sir Sreekars advice is definitely inspiring to even experienced post production experts and he is so clear... Good job Srikar and Sreekar..

Bro, you understood in wrong way. He liked it when Rajamouli said he is making RRR for Telugu audience. Same with Mani Ratnam as he made PS 1 for Tamil audience. Last 20 yrs nunchi Sreekar Prasad is editing Mani Ratnam films. He will never roast Mani.

I think before RRR many films had gone to west let's say Dangal, Endhiran, 2.0, Even Rajamouli's bahubali and many Films of Kamal had gone to Oscars. I don't know why everyone having a tagline of First film which reached globally.

@VedPOP Жыл бұрын

No one has reached RRR popularity in west. Its the first one to actually be popular mainstream west. Same popularity won them the oscar. Endhiran, bahubali never had that.

@shiva_kona Жыл бұрын

If Directors or Screenwriters are strong enough with their shot divison and their writing respectively, Editors are technical operators (alias puppets)..oops. This might offend Editors ... but the good news is ... there are many confused Directors out there.... And, YOU ARE THE UNSING DIRECTORS OF THOSE FILMS ... P.S: I am not speaking of this editor of hit films.
