'Naatu Naatu' roars at Oscars, live performance receives standing ovation; watch

Meeting the high expectations for the performance of the hit RRR track ‘Naatu Naatu‘, the singing duo Rahul Sipligunj and Kaala Bhairava set the stage on fire at the 95th Academy Awards on Monday. Along with a squadron of dancers, the singers aced the lyrical composition by MM Keeravaani by keeping recreating their vocals from the original soundtrack, only to send the audiences into a frenzy. The performance also received a standing ovation from the crowd at the Dolby Theatre in Los Angeles. While composer Keeravaani, director SS Rajamouli, and lead actors Ram Charan and Jr NTR cheered from the crowd, Sipligunj and Bhairava led the group of dancers for a high-octane performance, leaving the global audience satisfied to watch the “hook” steps translated on the stage.
