'RRR' had also been nominated in the 'best picture-non English' category and lost out to Argentina's historical drama 'Argentina, 1985'.

'Naatu Naatu', filmed on Ram Charan and Jr NTR, roughly translates to dance like no one's watching in Telugu. Choreographed by Prem Rakshith, it has legions of followers still trying to master its steps. The track has been voiced by singers Kala Bhairava and Rahul Sipligunj. The song has been shortlisted for the best original song, along with 14 others, in the Oscars.
