Naatu Naatu For Oscars 2023

Let`s face it, no one ever expected Naatu Naatu to win any awards, let alone Oscars, when it was released. However, it created hype and every note of the song struck the right chord with the Academy Award jury. Today, we are as pleasantly surprised, excited, proud, and drenched in mixed emotions as you are. S.S. Rajamouli`s RRR has won the Best Original Song for Naatu Naatu, a funky and feet-tapping song sung by Rahul Sipligunj and Kaala Bhairava

The M.M. Keeravaani`s musical creation competed with other masterpieces like Applause (Tell It Like a Woman), Hold My Hand (Top Gun Maverick), Lift Me Up (Black Pather Wakanda Forever), and This is a Life (Everything Everywhere All at Once).

It became the first ever song from any Indian production to win the Oscars. It is the second Indian song after Slumdog Millionaire`s Jai Ho won in the same category at the 2009 Academy Awards.
