Rolled R’s used to be common in many parts of Brazil until the mid 20th century.
If you listen to Brazilian music from before around 1950 or so you can hear singers from Rio and the Northeast rolling their R’s. It can also be heard in interviews with people from Rio born in the early 20th century.
Nowadays it survives mainly in pockets of the Southern region - specially in communities of Italian origin - as well as in São Paulo among older people.
Some examples:
São Paulo:
youtu.be
youtu.be
Paraná:
youtu.be
Santa Catarina:
youtu.be
(the older man in the beginning)
Rio Grande do Sul:
youtu.be
youtu.be

I love the rolled R sound, maybe I'm just an autist but it's very satisfying.

I don't think Hindi or my native language has one, but I could naturally roll R when I started learning Spanish.

But this one has consonant cluster, it's the only way to pronounce correctly

Fairly rarely. People use speak using the rolled R immediately sound weird
