There is no need to specially talk about the kind of films Ram Gopal Varma directed in the past ten years. Varma comes up with different logics like 'It's your mistake to have expectations upon me'.. 'Watch it if you like or leave it'.. 'who asked you to watch my film'.. 'my film earned several times to the budget' etc.
Whatever he says, it is a fact that he is not making films which match his standard. Forget about the standard, he started churning out miserable films in the recent past. When Akkineni Nagarjuna agreed to act in his direction, his decision has surprised the audience. Some of them were literally shocked. Nagarjuna said that he agreed to do the film on a condition that Varma should keep aside all his other projects to focus on his film.
Varma was silent for a few days after the commencement of Nagarjuna film but he started hungama with 'GST'. Now everybody has doubts regarding Nagarjuna project. Some people are even commenting that Nagarjuna made a mistake by believing Varma.
But the notable thing is that Nag didn't take any risk and didn't put others at risk with Varma project. We all know that this movie is bankrolled by Varma 'Company'. Production will be looked after by Varma himself. If the movie turns out to be a flop everybody will blame Varma. We have to wait and see what kind of a film Varma will make with Nag.. whether he will recover his investment or not.
