SSS: A Straussian reading of RRR

You might be familiar with the 2022 classic film RRR. Or "Rise. Roar. Revolt" as they marketed it. Two men, Ram and Bheem, with different objectives meet in unexpected circumstances and become friends. Their chief nemesis was the former British Empire in India. How they become friends, part ways and again reunite to defeat the Empire is the crux of the story. I will not go into detais here. The more interesting story is that of Ram who has internalised a crude version of the Second Amendment. It was taught to him by his father in his dying moments.
