For SS Rajamouli, the note read, “Because with his Bahubali films and RRR, the Telugu film director is the gold standard when it comes to vision and spectacle in cinema. It’s why director/producer Karan Johar says there’s no “bigger filmmaker than Rajamouli in Indian cinema” now. Because he has shown that pan-India cinema is the way forward. Rajamouli has found a cinematic vocabulary where awe-inspiring images and high emotional quotient ensure a connect with audiences everywhere” along with several other reasons.
Coming to Deepika Padukone, the note said, “Because she’s the go-to actress for big screen spectacles. Be it YRF’s spy universe Pathaan, aerial action drama Fighter or dystopian sci-fi saga Kalki 2898 AD, Padukone likes her films big, bold and bountiful at the box office. Her last four films together grossed Rs 3,600 crore globally”. “Because she’s a global star. From presenting at the Oscars (2023) and BAFTAs (’24) to unveiling the FIFA World Cup trophy in Qatar and being honoured at the World Economic Forum for her work in creating awareness about mental health, Padukone has shone on some of the most prestigious stages. Because she’s a brand in herself, endorsing 14 labels, including the likes of Louis Vuitton”, it added.
