Ram Gopal Varma ranting on Twitter is nothing new. Remember how he had made some strong remarks on Lord Ganesha (September 4, SpotboyE.com)
This time around too, RGV took to his microblogging account to ramble about God’s so-called partiality towards Amitabh Bachchan.
He tweeted:
RGV even wrote how he has never waited in long queues outside temples, but has waited outside Bachchans house to get his darshan.
His rant turned all the more obtuse when he started commenting on the looks of Gods. He tweeted: “I honestly think Bachchan looks more handsome than Ganpati, Balaji and Shirdi baba. Not that looks matter, but for me they do. My proof that Bachchans presence is better than that of Gods is that Deewaar, Zanjeer, Trishul wouldnt work with Ganpati, Balaji or Shirdi Sai Baba.”
Of course, the shocker came when the filmmaker wrote that Bachchan is God and has created other Gods. He tweeted:
We all know of his love-hate relationship with Big B. Having done films like Sarkar, Nishabd, Sarkar Raj, Rann and Department among others, there was a time when he couldnt visualize a film without the megastar. So much so that the two even did the utterly forgettable Ram Gopal Varma Ki Aag. However, things soured between them later.
Are these tweets a desperate attempt to appease Bachchan? Or is RGV again posting comments simply for their shock value? All we can say is much like his last few films, this series of tweets too are incomprehensible. Care to elaborate, Mr Varma?
