What is RRR?? (Please, it looks so good)

Oh my god YES, YEEEESSSSSS, I am so ready to answer this, thank you anon, I feel like I’ve been CHOSEN!!!!!!! Let me tell you about the best movie ever!!!!!!!!!!! it IS so good!

RRR (which stands for Roudram Ranam Rudhiram or Rise Roar Revolt) is an Indian Telugu-language film that came out in 2022 and became India’s third highest grossing film ever because it is THAT amazing.

This movie has EVERYTHING YOU COULD EVER WANT. Unbelievable, over-the-top action! British colonizers getting what they deserve! Stunning cinematography, sets and costumes! A soundtrack so incredible you’ll never be able to stop listening to it! Tigers! (They’re CGI, no animals were harmed in the making of the film.)

And, most importantly, it has one of the most compelling and beautiful onscreen romances relationships between two men that I have ever seen!!!!!!!!!!! This movie is SO gay I can’t even begin to tell you. Like not officially gay, but GAY. I love it so much. Listen. LISTEN TO ME. The entire cast is great, but in particular the two leads are AMAZING and their chemistry is INSANE. They are magic together.

RRR is set in the 1920s and it’s about two revolutionaries named Komaram Bheem (played by Jr. NTR) and Alluri Sitarama Raju (played by Ram Charan) who never met in real life, but the movie says, what if they did? It explores themes of friendship, betrayal, colonization, racism, revolution, religion, trauma, and… what if two men fell in love while fighting the British? AND FALL IN LOVE THEY DO

I don’t want to spoil anything but like. WATCH IT. It’s three hours long and worth EVERY SECOND. You might wonder, in a three hour movie, are there parts that feel slow? NO. This movie is incapable of dragging, and so much is packed into three hours it’s actually kind of crazy. The story is so good the themes are so good the acting is so good IT MAKES ME FERAL!!! DID I MENTION THE SOUNDTRACK???

I CRY AND SCREAM ABOUT RRR EVERY DAY. This movie is unhinged, and it made me unhinged, and hopefully you will watch it and become unhinged as well <3 thank you and goodnight!

I swear to god MAD is one of the best Telugu movies I've watched in forever it was so funny 😭 and the full movie is available on YouTube for free so I just keep rewatching it I love it so much

no random dances no unnecessary music its just a hilarious movie that goes by quickly and that you can lose yourself to I love it so much

[younggayanddoingokay]

Attention: just because Netflix only has the Hindi dubs of some South Indian Films, that doesn’t make it Bollywood!!! If it was made in south India, it’s a South Indian film and should be referred to by the name used for films from its respective location/language, ex tollywood, sandalwood, etc.

Watching Mohan Lal's Lucifer

[sir-ballister-boldheart]

Yo Goldenheart and Nimona nation, do i ever have good news for you!

Do you like homoerotic betrayals?

Do you like lovers best friends being torn apart upon finding themselves on the opposite sides of a war? Where each is burdened with the responsibilities from their chosen role?

Do you like couples where one half represents the oppressive regime and the other half embodies EVERYTHING the said oppressive regime hates? Where the one half, acting as a tool of violence and subjugation for the oppressive regime, has to HUNT DOWN and ARREST the other half who has sworn to attack the oppressive regime head on?

Do you like couples with opposing colour schemes? Where one half embodies a particular element and the other half embodies a contrasting element? Do you like couples who are each other's foils? DO YOU LIKE COUPLES WHO ARE THEMATIC PARALLELS TO EACH OTHER??

Do you like a story that's rich in symbolism? Rife with metaphors? A movie that you can rewatch again and again and STILL discover new stuff to lose your mind over?

Do you like a story where love shines brighter than the sun? Where love conquers all the hurt, anger, grief, heartbreak, generational trauma and violence? Where love heals? Where the sheer power of love changes the entire course of the narrative? Where love rewrites history itself?

Do you like movies that make you feel THE ENTIRE SPECTRUM of human emotions within its runtime?

Do you like gorgeous, jaw dropping cinematography? Do you like highly stylized action sequences?

Do you like banger music and a soundtrack that slaps HARD? Do you like a wonderful song and dance interlude in a movie as it shifts into the next act?

Do you like a character who is just the sweetest and the best and deserves everything that is good in the world and has BIG BROWN MASSIVE ADORABLE DOE EYES? And then proceeds to go through the literal WORST TIME ever?

Of course, you do! You like Nimona!

And ho boy, are you gonna LOVE RRR. Because this movie has got ALL of that and then some more. It's an epic, it's a war movie, it's a love story, it's highly symbolical, it's going to take your heart and rip it into two. And you will thank it for that.

Hmm, Enigma. But where can I watch it? 🤔

It's available on Netflix but only as the dubbed Hindi version. It's pretty good for a dub as the actors dubbed their characters themselves and the director oversaw the translation but! But! Listen! There is a magic in the original Telugu version and if you want to experience it, then thank @charcubed for this post where you can download the original Telugu version in crisp HD with English subtitles FOR FREE

There is a third option. You can stream it for free in Einthusan here. However, the quality of the Einthusan stream is not good, and if there is one movie that DESERVES to be watched in crisp HD quality? Trust me, it's RRR

So, what are you waiting for? Go watch it, RIGHT NOW. Seriously

[winterbeautyees]

One thing I really like about some Indian movies is that I do not need subtitles to understand them. I grew up watching many types of movies but almost every time, I specifically need them to be in English subtitles to understand the plot, I think you could understand the struggle (I'm Indian but I don't speak Hindi or Telugu or any other besides my mother language and English). But when it comes to those ✨Indian movies✨, I can see how their eyes talk so even with the language barrier, I could feel what they're trying to tell me. Suddenly, I no longer need them to put the words in front of my face to understand what they're saying, the eyes and expressions are more than enough.

I mean, tell me if this photo needs a subtitles

Congratulations, NETFLIX Brazil.

You finally released Devara, but you sabotaged the screening in the same way Disney did with BRAHMASTRA.

The film is available in 5 languages, but the only subtitles available on the channel are in English.

Damn this mania of thinking that all Brazilians are fluent in English, we are not even capable of speaking our own language correctly, let alone English!

So either I watch Devara dubbed (which I will not do) or I do not watch it (which unfortunately I will do).

All that is left for me is to look for sites that make Devara available for download with subtitles in Portuguese, just like I did with RRR.

And I hope I have more luck with Devara than I had with RRR.

I have never been able to find RRR with the audio in Telugu, only in Hindi.

I do not know NAATU, I only know DESI NAACH!

Then they complain that Brazilians only live off piracy.

The reason for this is quite simple.

You don't respect us as viewers, so why would we respect you as a company?

Parabéns NETFLIX Brasil. Vocês finalmente liberaram Devara, mas sabotaram a exibição da mesma forma que a Disney fez com o BRAHMASTRA. O filme esta disponível em 5 idiomas, mas a única legenda disponível no canal é o inglês. Maldita mania de achar que todo brasileiro é fluente em inglês, não somos capazes de falar corretamente nem o nosso proprio idioma, quem dirá o inglês ! Então ou assisto Devara dublado (o que não farei) ou não assisto (o que infelizmente farei). Tudo o que me resta é procurar por sites que disponibilizem para download, Devara com legendas em português, assim como eu fiz com RRR. E espero ter mais sorte com Devara do que tive com RRR. Eu nunca consegui achar RRR com o áudio em telugo, apenas em hindi. Eu não conheço NAATU, eu conheço apenas DESI NAACH ! Depois reclamam que brasileiro só vive de pirataria. O porque disso é bem simples. Vocês não nos respeitam como telespectadores, porque os respeitaríamos como empresa ?

Hallo! Have you ever heard of a movie called RRR (or Rise Roar Revolt)? It’s a really great (pretty whumpy) movie that I think you will like if you haven’t already seen it. It’s originally filmed in the Telugu language but you can watch it in Hindi with subtitles on Netflix! It’s a really heartfelt and touching story. Trigger warnings for somewhat graphic violence, plots and themes of racism and colonialism, as well as child death and endangerment, hope none of that is a deal breaker for you, it’s really worth it if you can get past those. it’s a really beautiful and exciting film!

I have not heard of that film! Thanks for the rec! (and the warnings as well! Much appreciated)

Unlock Telugu: Your Guide to Learning with Ease

Telugu, a beautiful and vibrant language spoken by millions, might seem daunting at first. But worry not! With the right approach, you can conquer those Telugu basics and have conversations in no time. Here's your roadmap to learning Telugu easily:

1. Start with Greetings:

Every language journey begins with greetings. Learn simple phrases like "Hello" (Namaste - నమస్తే) and "Thank you" (Dhanyavadalu - ధన్యవాదాలు). This friendliness goes a long way with native speakers!

2. Alphabet Adventure:

Telugu has its own unique alphabet. Don't be discouraged! There are many apps and online resources that make learning the script fun and interactive.

3. Focus on Everyday Words:

Build your vocabulary with commonly used words. Start with things you see daily like "water" (neeru - నీరు) or "food" (bhattam - భత్తం). Flashcards and labeled pictures are great tools for memorizing.

4. Make it a Game!

Learning shouldn't feel like a chore. Play games and quizzes that test your Telugu skills. There are even apps that gamify the learning process, making it fun and engaging.

5. Find a Language Partner:

Practicing with a native speaker is a fantastic way to improve. Look for online language exchange platforms or connect with Telugu speakers in your community. Don't be afraid to make mistakes – that's how we learn!

6. Immerse Yourself in Telugu:

Listen to Telugu music, watch movies with subtitles, or even find Telugu podcasts. Surrounding yourself with the language helps you grasp pronunciation and common phrases naturally.

7. Celebrate Small Wins:

Learning a language takes time and dedication. Acknowledge your progress, no matter how small. Celebrate each new word or phrase you learn – it's a step closer to fluency!

8. Be Patient and Consistent:

There will be ups and downs in your learning journey. Don't get discouraged! Consistency is key. Set realistic goals and practice regularly, even if it's just for a few minutes each day.

Conclusion:

Learning Telugu opens doors to a rich culture and connects you with millions of people. With these tips, the right resources, and a dash of determination, you'll be speaking Telugu with confidence in no time. So, what are you waiting for? Dive into the world of Telugu and embark on your exciting language adventure!

Re:the Priyam/Dosti thing! I did want to share a neat fact! For a good chunk of time in the 2000s early 10s the term 'Dostana' for which dosti is a kind of root word was connected to gay relationships because of the bollywood film dostana which explicitly discussed gayness as a high profile film. Even though it featured two straight characters pretending to be gay it did have a m/m kiss at the end and was the work of Karen joher whose gayness is kind of an open secret in the industry. So while it's unlikely that the translaters specifically were thinking about the association with dostana the film. There is actually a good chunk of subtext you can read into it based on the choice of the word dosti specifically. At least enough to do some textual analysis if nothing else lol. As always an absolute delight to see you enjoying Indian media!

OMG, that is SO interesting!!!

And well, so far it's mostly Ram Charan and Tarak movies (the only one without them I've seen is Baahubali 1 and 2 and I count them as one) but I am in love with the portrayal of the culture, even when I understand these movies are action flicks first and foremost.

I'm now even trying to learn some Hindu with duolingo and telugu with link so I can watch MORE movies without having to hunt subtitles!

[desigrrrl]

There's a lot of Telugu movies on Youtube with English subtitles, but do you know any that have Telugu subtitles? I'd like to see the Telugu written out so I can map characters to speech better

I’ve struggled with the same thing myself! It would be so much easier to learn Telugu like this. Unfortunately, there’s no movies with Telugu subtitles I can find on YouTube. That said, Amazon Prime Video seems to have Telugu subtitles for some media, like for Agent Sai Srinivas Athreya.

That said, if you can’t or don’t want to use amazon services, you can always look at lyrical videos for Telugu songs on YouTube (of which there are plenty), or even look for Telugu movie screenplays, like this one of Jathi Ratnalu.

Top of 2022

With 19 films watched and 2 favorited from 2022, I composed a list of my top. To coincide with 2019′s pure happenstance, the list is ‘almost’ an exact third (7) of the total films watched. Anything seen after the end of February, 2023, isn’t included (with 1 exception).

Honorable Mentions: Infernal Affairs remastered trilogy (2002 - 2003), Skinamarink, Vesper, TÁR Exception: Aranock’s Queer Relativity Why’s this so late? Yes, it is late.

Blind Rating is how worthwhile the film is watching “blind” (or knowing nothing). The scale is 1 (worth it) to 5 (you must). ‘Eh is essentially a 0.5.

1. Queer Relativity | Aranock (Canada)

Saw on YouTube in early March twice and listened to atleast once. i don’t even know (i guess: i fucking love it). Y’all, this movie fucked me up. Had to pause it so many times during first viewing this shit took me back so much. fuck Also, i fucking hate it. Blind Rating: 0.5/5 | film | Teaser | Description:

Hope you all enjoy my film on queer temporalities, language, and journey of discovering self

2. RRR (India)

Saw on Netflix in Hindi with English subtitles and again in theatre in Telugu with English subs. i fucking love it. Best (official) movie of the year. Don’t waste my time. Blind Rating: 1/5 Thoughts

3. Please Baby Please (USA)

Saw at Sie FilmCenter. i really like it (? tier). Holy fucking shit, this movie. lul Definitely put some people in the mood. Thoughts Quickie

4. Avatar: The Way of Water (USA)

Saw at Hawkins Theatres in 3D HFR and again at AMC Theatres in Real 3D. i really like it (mid tier?). Thoughts 1 & 2 Quickie

5. Everything Everywhere All at Once (USA)

Saw in theatre. i really like it (mid tier?). Y’all, I saw this in a theatre with 2-3 other dudes and we all bawled during the same scene. Shit was great. Thoughts Blind Rating: 0.5/5

6. Three Thousand Years of Longing (Australia & USA)

Saw at Hawkins Theatres. i really like it (high tier). Did not expect to enjoy it so much. Glad I went (and disregarded certain reviews). Thoughts

7. Nope (USA)

Saw at Harkins Theatres and again in VR (don’t ask). i really like it (mid tier?). Really enjoyed the entirety of it, especially as a story of two siblings. While I do see this as the director changing the horror genre (again? 🤔), I’m now wondering how much of it already exists in widely unknown indie films. 😐 (shout-out to LambHoot’s “The Resident Evil they keep Remaking...” video) Thoughts 1 & 2 Blind Rating: 1/5

[rosellerivers19]

Raayan- I have high hopes (thank you tamil cinema)

I have for some time lost hope in telugu cinema improving in diversity of tropes and performances but with recent stars and movies I have been brought back

Gam gam ganesha, prasanna vadanam, Hi nanna (kinda iffy for some reason but diverse storyline), and Hanuman

And I am waiting to see Kalki 2829 AD which I think will be definitely a big game changer given its dystopian setting something Indian cinema hasn't really approached a lot before especially on this kind of budget.

I've been limited to telugu movies for a long time because language barrier but due to subtitles and Telugu dubs my options have increased recently I watched the hindi movie Maharaj on Netflix in telugu which I really loved despite people claiming its hinduphobic while the movie is based on a real case and the movie claims yet again how hindu practices aren't bad but people misusing them is then again not a lot of people have comprehension or actually watched the movie and jump the train on any movie that slightly criticizes the religion or even raises just a few questions

*cough* *cough*

"Hindi movie PK starring Amir Khan"

I've watched a few good tamil cinemas when I was younger I didn't watch a lot of Dhanush movies because of the language barrier the only one I saw maybe was Maari 1 and 2 because it was dubbed in telugu but now I've grown to watch a lot more realizing he has a lot of diverse scripts and am so glad this man exists I need to binge his movies over the summer.

So I was listening to telugu songs on youtube when I came across this one called

"Peechu Mithaya"- telugu version

It's from the upcoming movie Raayan and oh my god just seeing this lyric video made me want to pay anything for this movie to come out right now and watch it.

Not only is the music beautiful ( i can listen to this for hours I don't know how I found this gem but I did and I'm grateful)

But the visuals and implications we are given is something I am screaming for.

PLUS SIZED ACTORS ON SCREEN HAVING AN ACTUAL LOVE STORY!!!!

Indian cinema has a lot of colorism especially to heroines especially from what I've seen in telugu movies. And they have to fit this perfect bod I've never seen a heroine be remotely big or a bit chubby even if it would show off their curves thats how the industry is and that saddens me.

But then we get this song and we see Aparna Balamurali who is first of all a plus sized character in the film with a dark complexion not milky white now tamil fans may be used to this but for me being born in Telugu cinema this is a jackpot especially when I have to really dig for inclusive films. The only cinema I've watched which supported a plus sized heroine having a love story is "Size Zero" starring anushka shetty an Iconic queen but I honestly have not seen any other films having a plus sized heroine or at least side heroine as a plus sized character with actual depth where we see her love story or ability to get happiness I think there was one Allari Naresh film but I don't remember it well.

edit: Totally forgot HanuMan existed which is also a good representation even though the mc's sister dies she was empowered and was on the brink of marriage so love that

In the Lyric Video "Peechu Mithaya"

We see an unconventional girl (Aparna Balamurali) who doesn't fit the beauty standards end up with an average/ attractive character (sundeep kishan) or at least have a romantic relationship in the songs visuals and a healthy one so far.

I am primarily gonna be watching this movie for them seeing the side hero carrying the plus sized side heroine brought me joy knowing that it would give hope to other women who aren't the conventional beauty standard or plus sized that they can be loved and have a love story like them that they aren't too heavy and the right guy will do anything to make them feel appreciated.

Look at the way he carries her and looks lovingly into her eyes!!!!!!

And there's just something about seeing this man looking so utterly in love with a girl who thinks she won't be good enough because of her physical appearance or other insecurities and he wants to prove her desperately wrong that makes me go feral.

Do you see what I mean!?!?!?

And I don't know if they will even delve into that kinda trope in the movie but I really wish they will since its something women especially women who've not been exposed to that kind of concept in their media want. Keep in mind we don't even have a trailer for this movie yet so pure speculations

And there's just so many cute clips like-

Nudging each other playfully!?!?!?

Having a couple argument/ confrontation!?!?!?

Riding on a bike together?!?!?!?

*cues internal screaming montage*

I love LOVE especially something so simple yet beautiful we need this more than Pushpa bribing Srivalli with money for kisses and putting his hand in inappropriate places without her consent. Or men just stalking in general and normalizing it????

Now I know that this couple might not even play a big part in the movie maybe one of the characters dies yadayada but knowing that scenes like this exist in the movie and that we'll have an entire song dedicated to THEM just quells my heart.

Dhanush sir thank you for this 4 minute montage that ignited my hope in Indian cinema and is making me want to delve into tamil cinema even more
