Ram
Gopal Varma had come on a bike to audio function
to enliven his sweet memories of studying at
Siddardha College. He had brief chitchat with
students. Here are the excerpts -
Q:
You did your civil engineering here. Why did
you enter film industry?
RGV: I did not visit college much. I
concentrated more on watching films in my engineering
time.
Q:
You do mafia and commercial films. Don't you
do patriotic films?
RGV: I am more patriotic about myself
than the country. I make films which I like.
Q:
Who inspired you as a director?
RGV: None
Q:
Why are you remaking Sholay?
RGV: Because old prints are not in good
shape.
Q:
Don't you do films with Telugu youth heroes
like Mahesh Babu and Jr. NTR?
RGV: Their films are becoming hits and
they are in good position. I don't want to give
them flops.
Q:
Just like you did Sarkar with inspiration of
Bal Thakare, why would you not make a film on
Paritala Ravi's life?
RGV: I am more familiar with Mumbai politics
than AP politics.
Q:
How do you want the girls to be?
RGV: Beautiful and sexy.
