“Naatu Naatu is a song of celebration… all we wanted to showcase in the song was lots of stamina and energy. I’m very excited for the great award I received just now. For the first time, it (RRR) has bagged the attention of the international audience, I am very happy for that,” MM Keeravani said while receiving the award. 

“It’s been an age-old practice to say that this award actually belongs to someone else. So I was planning to not say those words when I get an award like this, but I’m sorry to say I’m going to repeat the tradition because I mean my words,” he added.
