In a recent interview, Varma stated that he felt like he was watching a “circus” on screen while watching the period actioner. He also compared Jr NTR and Ram Charam to “professional gymnasts” as he said that their stunts in the film reminded him of Gemini Circus.
However, the 60-year-old director-producer also lauded the pan-India film as he expressed getting an “energetic experience” while watching RRR. Varma was all praise about a scene from the film where Jr NTR’s Bheem and Ram Charan’s Ramaraju save the life of a child near a railway bridge.
