Meet director who gave 21 flops, worked with Amitabh Bachchan, Manoj Bajpayee, got arrested after announcing…

The filmmaker has been sentenced to three months in jail by a Mumbai court in connection with a long-standing cheque bounce case.

Ram Gopal Varma’s iconic film Satya was re-released in theaters recently. Originally released 27 years ago, the movie starring Urmila Matondkar and Manoj Bajpayee made waves in Bollywood. It played a significant role in boosting the careers of Ram Gopal Varma, Urmila Matondkar, and Manoj Bajpayee.

Ram Gopal Varma, known for hits like Rangeela and Satya, has directed many films during his 32-year career. However, most of them (around 21 films) didn’t do well at the box office and were either flops or disasters.

On the occasion of Satya’s re-release, RGV shared an emotional post where he revealed that he watched the film after 27 years and it made him realize he had lost his way as a filmmaker. He admitted that his recent movies lacked the honesty and truth of Satya, which may be why they failed.

Now, the filmmaker has announced his next project, a movie called Syndicate. He describes it as his “most terrifying film” yet. Unlike horror movies featuring ghosts or supernatural elements, Syndicate will show the dark and terrifying side of humanity. Ram Gopal Varma wrote on social media that humans are the most frightening creatures, and this concept will be the focus of his upcoming film.

“ONLY MAN CAN BE THE MOST TERRIFYING ANIMAL “

In CONTINUATION to my CONFESSION note on SATYA film , I DECIDED to make the BIGGEST film ever

The film is called SYNDICATE

It’s about a terrifying organisation which threatens the very EXISTENCE of INDIA

The CONCEPT

As soon as the movie was announced, the next day on January 23, he was arrested. The Mumbai court has held Ram’s firm guilty in a cheque-bouncing case filed by a company in Vile Parle, which had provided hard disks to the former. The court has sentenced the filmmaker, the proprietor of the firm, to three months imprisonment and has asked him to pay a compensation of Rs 3,72,219 to the complainant.
