SS Rajamouli, the acclaimed director behind the blockbuster film RRR, along with his son Karthikeya and producer Shobu Yarlagadda, recently had a bit of a scare during a trip to Japan. While their visit was intended to be celebratory, marked by fan interactions and promotion of their upcoming project with Mahesh Babu, a tense encounter with turbulence threw a curveball into their itinerary. Taking to his social media, Karthikeya documented their unsettling experience by posting a picture of his watch displaying a blaring earthquake alert.
