Epic Blockbuster SS Rajamouli's 'RRR' Crosses Historic 2 Billion Yen In Japan
Tokyo, May 14 - The epic Indian blockbuster RRR, directed by maverick SS Rajamouli, is unstoppable at the Japanese box office, proving to be a monstrous hit in the country. ## Released in October last year, "RRR" initially feared a short life in Japan after lower than expected opening. However, as word of mouth spread, it became a force to reckon with, and as things stand today, it has crossed the historic ¥2 billion/$14.75 million or 121+ crores.## The period action drama is going nuts at the Japanese box office since last year and currently playing in a handful of cinemas. "RRR" already became the highest-grossing Indian movie in Japan in December 2022 after beating Rajinikanth's "Muthu" but it has stunned one and all with its longevity at the box office.## The period action drama has been running in theaters for over 205 days and has scored over 1.2 million footfalls. As reported earlier, Japan has become the highest-grossing overseas market for "RRR" after it crossed the film's USA run of $14.30 million. The total worldwide collection of the film now stands at around 1230 crores gross, including over 300 crores overseas collection. ## Produced by DVV Entertainment, the movie stars Jr. NTR, and Ram Charan in the lead along with Alia Bhatt and Ajay Devgn, among others in key roles. ## Stay tuned...
