Japanese fans of the movie also left their reactions on Twitter. One wrote, "Watched RRR. Best excitement of the year!!! Even though I know that overly enthusiastic recommendations will have the opposite effect, Rajamouli's film is set with enthusiasm, so it's hard to control. There are many highlights, such as the confrontation of 1 vs about 10,000 at the beginning and the rope-hanging rescue play in the middle and the end. Natu is also great." Another said, "I want everyone who thinks "I'm a little depressed" to watch the Indian movie RRR that will be released today. This tension continues for 3 hours straight. After watching it, tears and smiles will make your face look amazing as you walk out of the theatre."
