Japan cinema fans have really taken to SS Rajamouli’s RRR, which had a great theatrical run last year in the country. Now, the Broadway play, inspired by the movie, has also won hearts, and Rajamouli can’t keep calm. The director took to X to share the news that RRR has been adapted as a play by a century-old theatre company named Takarazuka Company.
He wrote, “Its an honour that our RRR has been adapted as a musical by the 110 year old Takarazuka company. Thank you Japanese audience for embracing the Broadway play of RRR just like the film itself. Overwhelmed by your response… Can’t appreciate all the girls enough for your energy, talent, and meticulousness in the show. ARIGATO GOZAIMASU.”
Along with the note, SS Rajamouli also shared a video and pictures from the play where audiences are seen giving him a standing ovation.
