SS Rajamouli experienced strong earthquake in Japan, reveals son SS Karthikeya

SS Rajamouli is currently in Japan with his family including his son SS Karthikeya and the RRR team for the screening of his 2022 movie. However, this visit to Japan will surely be one of those that is hard to forget. Rajamouli along with his son Karthikeya and the other RRR team had a freaking earthquake experience. 

SS Rajamouli and his son Karthikeya were on the 28th floor when they experienced a 5.3 magnitude earthquake. 

Karthikeya shared a photo of his watch showing an emergency alert message about the earthquake on social media.

His post on X read, “Felt a freaking earthquake in Japan just now!!! Was on the 28th floor and slowly the ground started to move and took us a while to realise it was an earthquake.”

He further noted how in this situation all the Japanese were calm. ”I was just about to panic but all the Japanese around did not budge as if it just started to rain!! Experience an earthquake box ticked (sic).”

RRR screening in Japan

It’s been more than two years since the movie was released in the theatres, but the madness around the movie refuses to die down. The film was recently screened in Japan, where it received a lot of love. 

Recently, director Rajamouli shared the special gift he received from a 83-year-old Japanese lady.

Sharing a photo with an old lady on social media, he wrote that the woman gifted him a handmade thousand origami cranes, “In Japan, they make origami cranes &gift them to their loved ones for good luck& health. This 83yr old woman made 1000 of them to bless us because RRR made her happy. She just sent the gift and was waiting outside in the cold.🥹 Some gestures can never be repaid. Just grateful🙏🏽.”

SS Rajamouli’s RRR became the highest-grossing Indian film in Japan. The movie surpassed Rajinikanth’s 1995 film Muthu, which was the highest-grossing Indian film of all time with a box office collection of JPY 400 million (approximately Rs 23.5 crores).
