SS Rajamouli's magnum opus 'RRR' created history at the box office with its massive worldwide business. Now, the Ram Charan and Jr. NTR starrer has bagged the Best International Film award at the 50th Saturn Awards. The director was unable to attend the event to receive the award, but his audio/visual was played in which he delivered his thank you speech for the honour. The video has been shared by Saturn Awards' Twitter handle.

'I am so glad that our film RRR has won the Saturn Award in the Best International Film category. I thank the jury on behalf of our entire team. We’re super elated. This is also my second Saturn Award. The first one I had got for Baahubali: The Conclusion. I wish I was there in person, but due to my prior commitments related to RRR promotions in Japan, unfortunately I am not able to attend. I would like to congratulate all the other winners. Hope you are having a great time. Have fun, namaste,' he said.

The epic period drama, which narrates the story of two freedom fighters Alluri Sitarama Raju and Komaram Bheem, was nominated in two other categories - Best Action Adventure and Best Director.

In a recent interview with Empire, Rajamouli tried to explain the reason behind the film's success and suggested that it might be 'RRR’s 'unapologetic action sequences; its unapologetic heroism' that captured audience's imaginations worldwide.
