'RRR' songwriter tried to thank late mother at Golden Globes

LOS ANGELES, Jan. 12 (UPI) -- RRR songwriter M.M. Keeravani accepted the Golden Globe for the movie's "Naatu Naatu," but did not get to finish his speech. Keeravani told UPI he was trying to thank his mother, who died Dec. 12 -- the day of the nominations.

"That was the last good news I shared with her," Keeravani told UPI in a recent Zoom interview. "She felt very happy and that was the last thing I told her before she passed away."
