James Cameron
During their conversation, James Cameron praised RRR and its director SS Rajamouli, saying, “Your fire, water story. Reveal after the reveal. And then you show what happened in the back story. So it is like all of them are a homely setup. Why he is doing what he is doing and the twists and turns and the friendship, and eventually, it gets to a point where he cannot even kill him when the other reverses. It is just so, so powerful.”
SS Rajamouli
SS Rajamouli, in turn, expressed his admiration for James Cameron’s work, saying, “I saw all your movies like Big inspiration. From Terminator, Avatar, Titanic, and Everything. Loved your work.”
