RRR is one of those rare movies that doesn’t just entertain you, it grabs you and refuses to let go. There is more movie in this movie than any other movie in the history of movies.
In this spoiler-free episode, John Mashni sits down with his longtime friend Alpesh Shah to talk about the Indian epic RRR and why it became the movie they can’t stop recommending. Their conversation has been years in the making, because they’ve essentially been having the same “you have to watch this” discussion with friends over and over again. This time, they finally recorded it.
They talk about how easy it is to underestimate this film at first glance, and how quickly it proves it’s operating on a completely different level. They unpack why the pacing works, why the emotional pull hits so early, how the music and sound design elevate the experience, and why RRR rewards repeat viewings.
If you have not seen RRR yet, this episode is designed to get you excited without spoiling the plot. If you have seen it, you’ll probably find yourself nodding along and wanting to rewatch it immediately.
