The evening of January 14 in Los Angeles saw M M Keeravani leave for another awards ceremony as soon as his Golden Globe for Best Original Song had been officially registered.
Keeravani won the award for Best Original Score in RRR at the 48th Los Angeles Film Critics Association Awards. Bill Nighy and Cate Blanchett, who won Best Actor and Best Actress for the films Tar and Living, respectively, were among those he spent the evening with. Keeravani attended the Critics' Choice Awards 2023 the following evening (January 15) with the RRR team, where he took home the Best Song award.
Keeravani, who is now in LA, says: “Every award that the song ‘Naatu Naatu’ is getting is special. But the Critics’ Choice Award is a little more special since RRR also won in the Best Foreign Language Film category. It was double triumph for us. I feel elated.”
“It’s like living in a dream. But also every exhausting. The past two weeks have been like a mad rush of events. I am barely able to remember which function I am attending and where,” admits Keeravani.
The award from the Los Angeles Film Critics Association was already announced in December.
“The winners for The Los Angeles Film Critics Association award were already announced in December. I knew I was chosen for Best Music Score. I am back home to India on January 18. I miss being home.”
