Indians celebrate after ‘Naatu Naatu,’ the breakout hit from the action movie ‘RRR,’ won the Academy Award for best original song while ‘The Elephant Whisperers’ won best documentary short film at the Oscars

"The popularity of 'Naatu Naatu' is global. It will be a song that will be remembered for years to come," Prime Minister Narendra Modi posted on Twitter, congratulating the team behind the song.

In the film, made in the South Indian language of Telugu, and directed by S.S. Rajamouli, "Naatu Naatu" begins when the two leads, played by Ram Charan and N.T. Rama Rao Jr., flaunt their dance skills after being bullied as the only Indian people invited to a British party in colonial times. During the scene, which was filmed at Ukraine’s grand Mariinskyi Palace, everyone at the party, including the scoffing British man, tries to master the moves.

"I feel this is about just the beginning of everything so that the world ‑‑ particularly the Western World ‑‑ focuses more on Indian music and Asian music, which is long due," Keeravani said backstage after winning the award.
