Ahead of the 2023 Oscars, S.S. Rajamouli's RRR is getting a nationwide re-release in the US. In a tweet, distributor Variance Films confirmed that the Tollywood epic would be screened in over 200 theatres in the country, starting March 3. But before that, a new report notes that the film will receive the 'world's largest screening' on March 1 — billed as the ‘RRR Fan CelebRRRation Live,' and will be held at The Theatre in Los Angeles, US. That event will see lead Ram Charan, director Rajamouli, and composer M.M Keeravaani present at the venue. RRR received an Oscar nomination for its energetic dance track ‘Naatu Naatu,' in January.

RRR over eight months ago, we've watched Rajamouli's epic shatter cultural barriers and grow to become an all-out global phenomenon,” Christian Parkes, co-founder, Beyond Fest (distributor) said (via SlashFilm). “Being able to give the film its biggest-ever screening in the original United Artists Theatre — one of the founding destinations of theatrical storytelling — is supremely poetic and the perfect venue to celebrate this modern masterpiece.”
