It was a proud day for India at the Oscars as RRR and The Elephant Whisperers brought laurel to the country by bagging an award each. While The Elephant Whisperers won in the Best Documentary Short Subject category, RRR won in the Best Original Song catergory for 'Naatu Naatu'. 

During their acceptance speech, 'Naatu Naatu' composer M.M Keeravani said, "I grew up listening to the Carpenters and now here I am with the Oscars," he began, and then began singing the melody of the '70s pop smash 'Top of the World': "There was only one wish on my mind. ... 'RRR' has to win, pride of every Indian, and must put me on the top of the world."
