Earlier, responding to South superstar Mahesh Babu’s remarks about Bollywood not being able to afford him, Ram Gopal Varma had told India Today in a chat, “”It is his choice as an actor. But I honestly didn’t understand what he meant by Bollywood can’t afford him. I am still unable to figure out what he meant by that because the point is, if you see the recent South Indian films, they were dubbed and released and they made whatever money they did.”
He had added, “Bollywood is not a company. It is a label given by the media. An individual movie company or a production house will ask you to do a film at a particular cost, so how can he generalise Bollywood, I don’t understand that.”
Ram Gopal Varma made his directorial debut with the Telugu film Siva. he then went on to direct Hindi films such as Rangeela, Satya, Sarkar, and Ram Gopal Varma Ki Aag, among other. He has won a National award for scripting the political drama, Shool.
