Ram Gopal Varma: I don’t watch anything except porn on the internet

Mumbai, May 5: Ram Gopal Verma and his verbal diarrhea are pretty infamous. Some feel like the director speaks his mind without any filter at times while some feel he is just attempting to grab attention. He is returning to Hindi cinema, after Satya 2, with his venture Veerappan. He has also written the screenplay for the project.

The Bhoot director is giving it his best to promote the film that is based on the life of infamous Indian bandit Veerappan. He appeared on a live chat with ScoopWhoop and made a few revelations about himself. Call it shocking or his eccentric behaviour but when he was asked to give out a message for the LIVE audience, he ended up mentioning the fact he doesn’t watch anything but porn on the internet. “I had never heard of ScoopWhoop before today because except for porn I don’t watch anything on the internet. I was told-for Veerappan’s promotions- about this really huge website called ScoopWhoop. And I don’t generally wish anyone because I know that wishes don’t make anyone’s life better. So I won’t waste my time, so you also don’t waste your time listening to my wishes. Bye” he said. All that left to do was mic drop after this. Well, Mr. Verma if at all that is true, you are missing out on a lot of cat videos.

Veerappan releases on May 27. The biographical drama stars Sandeep Bharadwaj in the titular role. Also appearing in the film are Sachiin J Joshi, Lisa Ray, and Usha Jadhav.

"We are thrilled by almost 95 per cent of the filmmakers whose films were selected to screen at the ground festival, agreeing to screen with us at our online festival. We are overwhelmed by the response from the filmmakers, and we are really glad to reach their films out to the world.
