Last year, luminaries such as Ram Charan, Jr. NTR, MM Keeravani, Chandra Bose, KK Senthil Kumar, and Sabu Cyril were also inducted into the academy.

Being a member of the Academy comes with numerous privileges. Members influence industry standards and have the esteemed responsibility of voting for Oscar winners each year. They are also granted access to exclusive screenings, premieres, and networking opportunities. Additionally, members can participate in workshops, seminars, and have access to the extensive academy library. They are involved in committees, Oscars programs, and have access to academy publications. Importantly, members also play a role in identifying and nurturing emerging talent, contributing to the future of cinema.

On the professional front, Rajamouli is currently working on his next project, ‘SSMB29,’ which features superstar Mahesh Babu.
