RRR becomes highest-grossing Indian film in Japan, collecting ¥410 million

Released theatrically in March, RRR made over ₹1,200 crore at the global box office. The Hindi version of the film premiered on Netflix on 20 May and soon became the globally most popular movie from India on the streamer.

A pan-India film, RRR follows a pre-independence fictional story woven around two real-life Indian revolutionaries — Alluri Sitarama Raju (Ram Charan) and Komaram Bheem (Jr NTR) — in the 1920s.
