Even Shah Rukh Khan is listed among the top 100 and is considered one of the “icons” of cinema.
Alia Bhatt, a member of SS Rajamouli’s RRR, wrote the biography of the filmmaker. “I first met S.S. Rajamouli at the premiere of Baahubali 2,” she adds. We were all very awestruck. Oh my God, what a dream it would be to work with this director, I thought even while I was watching the movie. And lo, the fantasy came true.
Alia Bhatt added, “Being directed by him in RRR was like going to school all over again. He knows the audience he’s serving. He knows what beats to hit, what turns to take. I call him the master storyteller, because he genuinely loves the flair and abandon of stories. And he brings us together. India is a massive country with diverse demographics, tastes, and culture. But he gets that—and he unites us through his movies.”
