Deepika at Oscars 2023

In March of last year, Deepika Padukone presented the performance of the Oscar-winning song “Naatu Naatu” from the film RRR at the 95th Academy Awards held in Los Angeles. Composed by MM Keeravani, “Naatu Naatu” created history by being the first Telugu song to be performed, nominated, and ultimately win an Oscar.

While introducing the act, Deepika said, “An irresistibly catchy chorus, electrifying beats and killer dance moves to match have made this next song a global sensation. It plays during a pivotal scene in RRR, a movie about the friendship between real-life Indian revolutionaries, Alluri Sitarama Raju and Komaram Bheem.”

She added, “In addition to being sung in Telugu and illustrating the film’s anti-colonialist themes, it’s also a total banger. It’s got millions of views on YouTube and Tiktok, has audiences dancing in movie theatres all around the world, and is also the first song ever from an Indian production to be nominated for an Oscar.”
