Ram Gopal Varma's 'Virus' Announced!
RGV will you care to dish out a decent watch?
Filmmaker Ram Gopal Varma on Sunday announced his next film titled Virus."My next film is titled 'Virus' and is being produced by Parag Sanghvi, who produced 'Sarkar' and 'The Attacks of 26/11'," Varma tweeted.This comes after his film "Officer", which released last month.
He had said: "It ('Officer') is a film about the violent society we live in and one man's struggle to bring a semblance of sanity in the lives of common citizens. The violence in 'Officer' is raw and real."
"You can't show the reaction until you spotlight the action. The violence here is not gratuitous. It will make the audience uncomfortable, as any form of violence is supposed to," he added. The other films keeping him busy are "Geher", "Rai" and "Nuclear".
Every time RGV offers a new movie we get a mini heart attack of sorts these days. His last outing too turned out to a dud. Here;s what our South Expert has to say about the film. When we learnt that he is teaming up with Akkineni Nagarjuna after more than two decades for a cop drama, Officer, we were thrilled. The last time they worked together, we got the gritty, brilliant Shiva. Can RGV regain his magic touch with the star-presence of Nagarjuna?
Alas, the movie turned out to be a huge disappointment, both at the box office as well as with the critical acclaim. We are unhappy, but perhaps not as much as this distributor from Andhra who has threatened to commit suicide if the director and the star do not pay for his losses.
