Ace bollywood director Ram Gopal Varma said that his movie Raktha Charithiram is volatile and that it has a social and political message. “I never knew what mafia and gang war were until I saw Godfather. It was a foreign story but its emotions were universal. So is ‘Raththa Charithiram’. The subject is volatile, obviously there should be some gore and violence. It would embolden me to keep making Tamil movies. Kollywood has evolved a lot. We get to see movies of various genres getting released in the south”, the director was quoted as saying. He also told the media that he had high regards for Suriya who appears in the lead role in the flick.
