A video during the Oscar Awards went viral, about which Indian fans expressed their displeasure. In fact, during the event, RRR director SS Rajamouli along with his family was given the back seat. The fans were strongly condemning this.
People say that it is disrespectful to make the team of a film whose song has won an Oscar sit in the last line. Users believe that the Academy knows who is going to win the award, yet they chose the team of RRR. Gave a seat on the last row, this is really a matter to think about.
