Ram Gopal Verma is one such filmmaker who doesn’t care about anything, but just about his movies. He ignores controversies on everyone’s face and keeps on doing his works. He also reveals that whatever he does is a publicity stunt, for seeking people’s attention.

 

His latest controversial step is the holding of the premiere of his upcoming movie ‘Rakta Charitra’ in Andhra Pradesh. The movie faced hostile opposition due to its political subject matter based on a politician from Anantapur and the director has organised the premiere in the very place of controversy Anantapur, Andhra Pradesh.

 

RGV quotes the reasons for holding the premier in the town and says, “Of course it is a publicity stunt, everything I do, I do it for publicity. I am in the business of making films and films need publicity.”

 

The home town of slain leader Paritala Ravi the protagonist of the gory bio-pic is the person from Anantapur covered in the movie.

 

RGV adds further, "The people who have problems with the content of the film need to come and watch it, so that they realize that the rumors are untrue. It's their story, the movie is about them and therefore the premiere has to be held in Anantapur.”

 

RGV has always been in a habit of creating controversies through his unusual acts, late in the year 2009, he hung dummies of dead bodies over the film's posters on the busy highways of Mumbai to promote his movie ‘Agyat’, which caused an uproar in the city.

 

He also used the line from Mahabharat ‘Revenge Is The Purest Emotion’ and in spite of the opposition shown by the Censor Board, RGV seems unperturbed.
