I Still Like ‘Satya’ but Not That Hit Film

” I’m not the director who made ‘Shiva’. My mind does not work in that sphere anymore. ‘Shiva’ is a subject which was related to college politics rampant during that time and it does not hold good in the present times,” opines Ram Gopal Varma on why he didn’t make a sequel of ‘Shiva’.

“I didn’t like ‘Shiva’ when I watched the film after 25 years to make a documentary on the film. May be I have changed as a director and may be for worse. ‘Satya’ is like me even today and hence I still like ‘Satya’ but not that Nagarjuna’s hit film ‘Shiva’ explains RGV on not liking his career changing movie.

He says he felt it is childish to use a cycle chain to beat others. ‘Shiva’ is structural based film while ‘Satya’ is a realistic film with real characters. Hence the latter film looks new to me even today because the characters are new. He is no more the director who made ‘Shiva’ clarifies RGV.
