Ram Gopal Varma discloses that a Tollywood actor used personal money to keep a failing film in theatres; Netizens respond
Ram Gopal Varma has stirred up controversy once more with his recent assertions about a well-known Telugu actor. During a recent discussion, he stated that the actor made significant efforts to keep his underwhelming film in theatres. He claimed that the actor personally financed the movie to ensure it remained on screens, despite its lackluster reception from audiences. Varma’s remarks have sparked a new wave of debate and intrigue within the industry and among fans, who are speculating about the actor’s identity and the validity of these allegations.
In an interview with Galatta Plus, Ram Gopal Varma mentioned that a corporate entity from Mumbai collaborated on a film with a major star in Telugu cinema, which unfortunately resulted in financial losses. The corporate firm considered pulling the movie from theatres, but the fans of the actor in question believed it would be humiliating if the film didn’t remain in theatres for a predetermined duration. Varma further asserted that the Tollywood star reached out to the corporate entity, offering to invest his own money to keep the movie circulating for a specified period, on the condition that the company continued its involvement.
Following the clip’s viral spread on the internet, numerous social media users speculated that the actor in question might be Prabhas, while others proposed it could be Mahesh Babu. Meanwhile, some individuals suggested that Mahesh Babu‘s recent film, ‘Guntur Kaaram,’ which was a box office failure, might be the movie Varma was alluding to.
