Ram Gopal Varma's Satya 2 will be "completely different" from Satya

Ram Gopal Varma's Satya 2 will be 'completely different' from Satya

Highlights

  • Ram Gopal Varma shot to fame as a director of repute after his gangster film Satya hit the big screens about 15 years ago. Post that, he made and produced many films that earned him a loyal following. His protégés Anurag Kashyap (co-writer of Satya) and Jaideep Sahni (writer of Company) moved out of his camp and gradually found their own space in Bollywood. It seems that RGV lost the plot soon after, and his Factory started churning out gimmicky films. His Sholay remake – Ram Gopal Varma Ki Aag – caused a lot of damage to his image, but he is apparently unaffected by brickbats.
  • We recently heard that he is making the sequel of his cult film Satya and we were praying that it wouldn’t happen, considering his track record.
  • John Abraham is producing Satya 2, and reportedly this begins after RGV has finished shooting 26/11.
  • In a recent interview RGV said, “This is a completely different story, with completely different characters, in fact, there won’t even be a reference to the first Satya in any which way.” The Manoj Bajpayee-JD Chakravarthi starrer is still considered to be his best film, and we hope he doesn’t ruin the sequel with his rogue camera antics.
