In a significant nod to the global impact of Indian cinema, Ram Charan has been inducted into the prestigious Actors Branch of the Academy. This announcement comes as a proud moment for Indian cinema enthusiasts, following the footsteps of his “RRR” co-star, Jr NTR, who had previously received this honour.

The Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences announced via an Instagram post on Thursday, celebrating the inclusion of a diverse group of ‘accomplished performers’ from around the world. The list this year is studded with international talents like Lashana Lynch and Louis Koo Tin-Lok, among others. Ram Charan’s membership amplifies the already significant buzz “RRR” has created in Hollywood, especially after the historic win of the song ‘Naatu Naatu’ for Best Original Song at the Oscars, a first for an Indian film song.

The Academy’s post on Instagram was not just a mere announcement but a tribute to the actors’ contributions to cinema: “Through their nuanced portrayal and dedication to authenticity, these actors gift us with characters that leave a lasting impression on our hearts and minds. The mastery of their art form transforms ordinary moments into extraordinary cinematic experiences, enriching our appreciation for the depth and complexity of human emotions. We’re thrilled to welcome these accomplished performers to the Actors Branch of the Academy: Lashana Lynch, Ram Charan, Vicky Krieps, Louis Koo Tin-Lok, Keke Palmer, Chang Chen, Sakura Ando and Robert Davi.”

The inclusion of both Jr NTR and Ram Charan in the Academy’s Actors Branch is not just a personal milestone for the actors but also a testament to the global reach and evolving recognition of the Indian film industry. Their performances in “RRR” have been instrumental in this regard, bridging cultural gaps and bringing Indian cinematic prowess to the forefront of the global stage.

Fans of Jr NTR had previously celebrated his inclusion, and now with Ram Charan also on the list, the joy has doubled. The sentiment was palpable earlier in October when the Academy introduced new members including Jr NTR, and fans eagerly awaited Ram Charan’s name to be announced. Their questions have now been answered, filling the Indian film community with immense pride.

As “RRR” continues to break barriers and “Naatu Naatu” rings out as a symbol of Indian cinema’s global stride, the elevation of its stars to members of the Academy’s Actors Branch is a cause for celebration. It marks a significant moment in the recognition of Indian actors on the international stage, heralding a new era of inclusivity and diversity in global cinema.
