Actor NTR Jr is ecstatic as the song ‘Naatu Naatu’ from ‘RRR’ has been nominated for Best Original Song at the 95th Academy Awards. This is the first time that a Telugu-language song has been nominated in the category.
The peppy dance number composed by M M Keeravani and penned by Chandrabose is now vying for the top music honour at the Oscar Aawards.
Celebrating the nomination of ‘Naatu Naatu’, NTR Jr wrote on social media, “Congratulations @MMKeeravaani Garu and @boselyricist Garu on achieving another well-deserved and monumental feat… This song will forever hold a special place in my heart.”
NTR Jr danced his heart out in shiny suspenders in ‘Naatu Naatu’ alongside Ram Charan, which became a celebratory anthem across the globe. The song was earlier honoured with a Golden Globe award for Best Original Song.
In ‘RRR’, NTR Jr portrays Komaram Bheem, an Indian revolutionary and freedom fighter in the colonial-era. The film had an unprecedented run at the global box-office.
