who
was
one
of
the
presenters

made
the
performance
announcement
amid
cheers
from
the
audience.
She
looked
gorgeous
as
ever
in
a
black
LV
off-shoulder
gown.
While
introducing
the
song,
she
said,
"An
irresistibly
catchy
chorus,
electrifying
beats
and
killer
dance
moves
to
match
have
made
this
song
a
global
sensation.
It
plays
during
a
pivotal
scene
in
'RRR',
a
movie
about
the
friendship
between
real-life
Indian
revolutionaries
Alluri
Sitarama
Raju
and
Komaram
Bheem.
In
addition
to
being
sung
in
Telugu
and
illustrating
the
film's
anti-colonialist
themes,
it's
also
a
total
banger!"
She
further
added,
"It's
earned
millions
of
views
on
Youtube
and
Tik
Tok.
Has
audiences
dancing
in
movie
theatres
all
around
the
world
and
is
also
the
first
song
ever
from
Indian
production
to
be
nominated
for
an
Oscar.
Do
you
know
Naatu?
Because
if
you
don't,
you're
about
to.
From
the
film
RRR
this
is
Naatu
Naatu."
