SS Rajamouli’s magnum opus RRR has been roaring at the box office and has collected a whopping over Rs 1000 crores. The film has garnered praise for the depiction of freedom fighters Alluri Sitarama Raju and Komaram Bheem.
Meanwhile, Rajamouli recently visited Asifabad, the native place of Komaram Bheem, in Telangana for the film’s screening. The screening took place at the Picturetime theatre.
Rajamouli was delighted to visit the native place of Komaram Bheem. He attended and enjoyed the screening with the audience. According to Rajamouli, he was immensely happy to be there and witnessed the success of his film. Rajamouli described it as an amazing feeling to visit the native place of freedom fighters.
