SS Rajamouli’s pre-independence patriotic drama, RRR had a theatrical release in Japan on October 21st. Along with Rajamouli, the lead heroes NTR and Ram Charan even left for Japan and promoted RRR in an aggressive way.
Meanwhile, the latest news is that RRR completed a 100-day run at the Japanese box office. Reportedly, the film collected approximately ¥725 million( close to Rs 46 crore gross in Indian currency) at the box office in Japan.
