RRR, SS Rajamouli's magnum-opus starring Jr NTR and Ram Charan in lead roles, continues to roar on the international stage. Oh, and, it is safe to say RRR's fanbase in Japan is increasing with each passing day. Why do we think so? The film has witnessed a “huge footfall” after the release of Dolby prints and the "increase in the IMAX screens" in Japan. In a tweet, team RRR said, “The weekend that made us the happiest since #RRR's release at the Japanese Box Office. #RRRMovie recorded a huge footfall after the release of @DolbyJapan and an increase in IMAX screens. January 20 - 7,181; January 21 - 14,102; January 22 - 15,733. Total - 417,006 as of January 22.”
