The 'Army' in India lost all their calm when they watched their favourite South Korean pop star mouth a few lines of 'Naatu Naatu' and even bop his head along the choreography. They immediately took to the comment section and praised Jungkook for his choice of music and showered him with love.
Showing the same excitement as Indian BTS fans, the makers of 'RRR' too took to Twitter and shared the same video of Jungkook where he is enjoying the song from SS Rajamouli's magnum opus, 'RRR'.
"JUNGKOOKâ¦.It's amazing to know that you loved #NaatuNaatu so much. We are sending a ton of love to you, the #BTS team, and the whole of South Korea. #RRRMovie. (sic)", wrote the official social media handle of the movie while sharing the video.
'Naatu Naatu' has been a flavour of the award season. It has already won a Golden Globe and a Critics Choice Award this year. At the Oscars, the song is contending against tracks sung by Lady Gaga and Rihanna.
'RRR' stars NTR Jr., Ram Charan, Ajay Devgn, Alia Bhatt and Shriya Saran and tells the fictional story of two real-life Indian revolutionaries, Alluri Sitarama Raju and Komaram Bheem and their fight against the British Raj.
