Other day maverick filmmaker Ram Gopal Varma who lost that Midas touch these days has shocked everyone with the trailer of his upcoming web series “Guns And Thighs”. It has both nudity and expletives at the core, giving a rustic feel about Mumbai and its mafia as envisioned by Varma.
“I named the series GUNS and THIGHS as a synonym for Power and Sex which are primary motors of nature in any politics of a criminal nature”, tweeted Varma, explaining why he made this web series. But late in the night, he made an interesting comment and deleted the tweet by the morning.
Apparently, Varma stated that Amitabh Bachchan’s Guns and former beauty queen Zeenat Aman’s thighs have influenced him a lot as a filmmaker. While Big B needs no introduction, Zeenat Aman has won Femina Miss India Asia Pacific title in 1970 and since then she has no looking back in Hindi film industry as reigning heroine before she retired. But in no time, RGV has removed this tweet.
“I became film maker under influence of Bachchan’s Guns nd Zeenats things n pretty much who mattered got influenced with their own G’s and T’s”, his deleted tweet read.
To make a series work on YouTube, already Varma made most of the nudity and cuss words, and now he’s justifying his title as well through these lines. We have to see how netizens take this.
