Viral: US Ambassador Highlights Rajamouli Effect

There is no denying the fact that Rajamouli put Telugu cinema and also a substantial part of Indian cinema in the global map. His RRR went places no Indian film ever could in the past.

Now, coming to the topic, a viral video of a US Ambassador highlighting the Rajamouli effect is all over the internet.

In the video, we see Eric Garcetti, an American politician and diplomat who has been the United States ambassador to India since May 11, 2023, give a fitting yet unintentional reply to the interviewer.

When the interviewer says “LA has Hollywood, India has Bollywood”, Eric replies “and Tollywood…”. This response is going viral on social media and the Telugu community is pretty excited about the same.

The very fact that an US ambassador and diplomat has spoken about Tollywood, which is an alienated space for US natives shows the scale the industry has gone, courtesy of Rajamouli, commented a netizen.
