Rakta Charitra: RGV Threatened
- IndiaGlitz, [Monday,August 30 2010]
ControversyÂs favourite child Ramgopal Varma has been receiving legal notices and threat calls right from the beginning of the announcement of his ambitious faction movie ÂRakta CharitraÂ. The latest news is that family of slained faction leader Obul Reddy of Anantapur have raised their questions on the genuineness of the portrayal of characters pertaining to their family in the movie.
It might sound complicated but arenÂt controversies supposed to be complicated? As ÂRakta Charitra is inspired from the feud between Paritala Ravi and Suri, it also involves other characters including the aforesaid Obul Reddy who is one of the main opponents of Paritala Ravi. In real life, Obul Reddy was a strong political figure who was assassinated in Hyderabad and so were his father and brother.
Thinking that their family has been portrayed in a bad way, the sisters of Obul Reddy, Uma Rani and Usha Rani, have sent a legal notice to RGV through their lawyer informing him to show them ÂRakta Charitra before the release.
Reacting to their allegations, the calm and straightforward RGV reiterated his stand that the movie is only inspired and a fictional account of the real story of the people involved in Anantapur. RGV said he received threat calls telling he would be killed, if the movie is released. Unafraid, RGV firmly gave a counter saying he will release the movie without showing it to anybody, even if Obul ReddyÂs ghost haunts him.
Controversies or none, ÂRakta Charitra is boiling hot with a lot of expectations. The movieÂs coming to theatres in last week of September.
