 Review of RRR - Indian Film - The Psychology of the British Raj & The British Empire's Cruelty 

Today I wanted to offer some reflections about the Indian Telugu film, RRR, directed by Rajamouli, featuring Ram Charam and NT Rama Rao Jr. 

I watched this film at the weekend and today wanted to offer some reflections about the psychology of the British Raj which we see played out in the film. 

The story of the film starts with the British Governor played by Ray Stevenson and his wife who buy a young girl from a village they are visiting. The village presume they are being paid for the singing, not for the girl and try to get the child back.

The girl has a protector who tries to rescue the girl, a man called Bheem, played by NT Rama Rao Jr. 

The story shows his battle to get the girl back from the British whlie battling a policeman played by Ram Charam. 

I was drawn to writing a review because of how the trauma and cruelty of the British Empire is potrayed in the film and how I feel it links into the education of the British especially boarding school. 

I quote from Nick Duffell author of Wounded Leaders.
