RRR prides itself on being the first Indian feature film to receive an Oscar. Its song “Naatu Naatu by MM Keeravani bagged the Best Original Song Award at the 95th Academy Awards.

RRR was one of the biggest Indian films of last year, which broke several records at the box office. The big-ticket film was directed by SS Rajamouli and had a star-studded cast, including Jr NTR, Ram Charan, Alia Bhatt, and Ajay Devgan, among many more.

After completing SSMB 29, Rajamouli is likely to work on his interpretation of the Hindu epic Mahabharata, which will be a 10-part franchise. His busy schedule may restrict the filmmaker from returning to direct the sequel of RRR.

Jewel Thief Falters with Silly Screenplay and Overdone Plot

Jewel Thief: Self-indulgent stealing story badly let down by silly screenplay

This newly released Netflix crime caper illustrates everything that is currently wrong with commercial Bollywood films. The silly stinker was not good enough for a cinema release, so it was dumped straight on to a streaming platform, with style clearly taking precedence over substance.

Saif Ali Khan plays a suave, globetrotting thief who is blackmailed by a mysterious underworld figure (Jaideep Ahlawat) into stealing a priceless diamond from a museum in Mumbai. Naturally, there is a backstory involving the guilt-ridden protagonist and a law enforcement officer hot on his trail. But instead of offering a gripping battle of attrition or an engaging heist thriller, the film descends into a muddled melting pot of tired clichés and what seem like a series of self-indulgent moments from the lead cast.
