RRR, which grossed over ₹1000 crore worldwide during its theatrical run and was massively celebrated for its breath-taking action, powerful performances and grand sets, is gearing up for a massive release in Japan.

In July, a tweet from the official account of RRR page read that the film will release in cinemas all over Japan on October 21.

Made on a budget of approximate ₹300 crore, the film emerged as one of the highest-grossing Indian films ever, next to only Rajamouli’s own Baahubali series.

The Hindi-dubbed version of RRR is streaming on Netflix while the original Telugu as well as Tamil, Kannada and Malayalam versions are streaming on ZEE5. Recently, Netflix released figures that showed it was the most-popular non-English film on the platform globally.

Over the last few months, RRR has been re-released across several cities in the US as part of the Beyond Fest.

Earlier this month, the film was showcased at TCL Chinese Theatre and was received with thunderous response from the audience. A Deadline report confirmed that 932 seats in the theatre were sold out in 20 minutes. From the single show, the film minted $21,000, taking its cumulative box-office earnings from re-release to $221,156.
