Rajamouli's RRR starring Ram Charan and NTR opened to mixed reviews. While a few sections of media gave positive reviews,others expressed their disappointment saying that the film lacked the basic emotions and lacked an impactful story. Some even came with ratings as low as 2 for RRR which shocked all as RRR happens to be Rajamouli's first after the sensation he created with his film Baahubali at the international level.

In the midst of all this, Hollywood media came with a sensational review and analysis branding RRR as bigger than Hollywood classic BenHur. Popular media Deadline, came with the review which ran '“Bigger than Ben-Hur.” Never again will I bandy around this expression to describe mere weddings, parties or anything else. S.S. Rajamouli’s epic RRR (Rise! Roar! Revolt!), which tells the story of friends who discover they are on opposite sides of India’s struggle for independence, is so massively bigger than Ben-Hur that I’ve almost forgotten that legendary chariot race.'

'Who needs chariots when you have an army of tigers, jackals and monster stags at your disposal? When one small boy with a lock-and-load rifle can take out an entire British company of colonial lackeys? When two warriors, one unable to walk and riding on the other’s shoulders, become an invincible fighting machine? It simply can’t get any bigger! And look: here comes a chariot, inevitably loaded with tigers!'. Benhur is 1959 American war film which was nominated for 12 Oscars and won 11 out of them creating a sensation.

This description is thrilling all the Tollywood fans. They are in a celebratory mode making this analysis viral on social media.
