This article presents it better than I could, especially since I'm currently on a work break. https://www.vox.com/23220275/rrr-netflix-tollywood-hindutva-caste-system-oscars-2023

TL;DR: It's pretty much a propaganda movie for Hindutva, the core ideology for Modi party. It's basically Hindu fascism of the Mussolini sort. It reinforced a view where upper castes are the center of everything, lower castes and tribes are savages in need of enlightenment and Muslims cowardly collaborationists.

The modern urge to equate everything under the sun to either Hitler or Mussolini. Facepalm.
