"RRR movie's 'Naatu Naatu' song clip was played during CII Partnership Summit attended by Union minister Piyush Goyal. 'Naatu Naatu' from RRR has won the #Oscar for the Best Original Song," news agency ANI wrote on Twitter while sharing a clip from the summit.

In the video, Mr Goyal said that the entire team of RRR "deserves the highest accolades". He requested to play a short clip of the song on the big screen. "I think they deserve a standing ovation," he said. 

Notably, 'Naatu Naatu' is the first song from an Indian production to be nominated for - and to win - an Oscar. The song won over a group of tough rivals, including Lady Gaga's 'Hold My Hand' from Top Gun: Maverick, Rihanna's 'Raise Me Up' from Black Panther: Wakanda Forever, 'This Is A Life' from Everything Everywhere All At Once and 'Applause' from Tell It Like a Woman.

Notably, earlier this year, 'Naatu Naatu' also won the award for the Best Original Song at Golden Globes.
