Ram Gopal Varma Says That He Is Blamed For Others’ Flops As Well!
In his characteristic sense of self-depricating humor, Ram Gopal Varma the director of the superhit Satya and the mother of all flops, RGV ki Aag; states that he is being tagged along for the flops of other film-makers. Says Ramu with mock laughter, “When Tashan came, they said its ‘Aditya Chopra ki Aag’. For Chandni Chowk to China, it was ‘Nikhil Advani ki Aag’. For Kites it was ‘Rakesh Roshan ki Aag’. Now Raavan is being termed as ‘Mani Ratnam ki Aag’. I guess apart from bearing with my own flops, I have to now bear with flops coming from others as well.”
Ramu, who is almost completing Rakta Charitra(which will release in two parts), the maverick director is keeping a tab on Bollywood. Unfazed by his flops like Sarkar Raj, Rann, Agyaat and Phoonk 2, he loves people digging at Aag.
“I have realized that Aag has now become more popular than Sholay”, he dares to make a bold statement, though with a defining base to prove his reasoning, “That’s because a hit like Sholay comes once in a lifetime whereas a flop like Aag comes every few months. That’s the reason why there are so many references to Aag made time and again.” He says that he is happy that Aag is a benchmark for flops, a thing that is not so easy to emulate.
