Keeravani accepted the award from presenter Jenna Ortega. “I’m very much overwhelmed with this great moment,” he began his speech. “This award actually belongs to someone else. I was planning not to say those words when I get an award like this, but I’m afraid I’m going to repeat the tradition because I mean my words.”
Speaking on the red carpet, Ram Charan also said, “In India, everything is so musical…And, talking about the song my knees still wobble. It is the most difficult song we did and I guess it all paid off. And, why my director [SS Rajamouli] pushed both Jr NTR and me to do what we did in that song…And, look where we are here talking to you on this red carpet.”
Talking about the journey, Ram Charan added, “I am still digesting this whole journey from India to Los Angeles. The Mecca of films…It is heartwarming. It is overwhelming. I am slowly grasping everything now.”
