Ram Gopal Varma is back in the spotlight, this time discussing Lawrence Bishnoi and his ongoing threat to Salman Khan. The filmmaker, known for his controversial takes, has been actively tweeting about this topic and even suggested making a film about the infamous gangster.
In one of his tweets, RGV urged Salman Khan to give a bold response to Bishnoi’s threats. He stated that if Salman doesn’t respond, it might appear as if the actor is backing down. He wrote, “I want Salman Khan to give a super counter-threat to Bishnoi, otherwise it will look like cowardice on the part of the Tiger star. What SK should do for his fans is to emerge as a bigger superhero than Bishnoi.”
Varma Hints at a Film on Bishnoi
Varma further teased the idea of a movie on Lawrence Bishnoi, saying that no filmmaker would choose someone who looks like Dawood Ibrahim or Chhota Rajan to portray a character like him. He emphasized Bishnoi’s appearance, stating, “I don’t know any film star who looks better than B.” This comment has added to the speculation about a potential film based on Bishnoi’s life.
Bigger Than Ranbir’s Animal?
In another tweet, Varma compared Lawrence Bishnoi to Ranbir Kapoor’s role in the upcoming film Animal. He said, “Lawrence Bishnoi looks like a bigger animal than Sandeep Reddy’s Ranbir Kapoor.” This bold comparison has sparked reactions on social media, with some praising Varma for his insights, while others have trolled him for bringing a real-life criminal into the limelight in such a manner.
Mixed Reactions on Social Media
As always, social media users were quick to react to Varma’s statements. Some took a humorous approach, with one person tweeting, “Sir, no comment on Lawrence, he might come to your house too.” Others brought up Varma’s silence on the Sushant Singh Rajput case, questioning his sudden vocal stance on this matter. Another user commented, “Don’t even think of making a film on this, we don’t need any more horror movies.”
The Backstory
Varma’s interest in Bishnoi stems from a long-standing controversy. Lawrence Bishnoi, who was a mere child when the blackbuck poaching incident occurred in 1998, has publicly declared that avenging the killing of the animal has been his life’s goal. Varma earlier tweeted, “Lawrence Bishnoi was just a 5-year-old child when the deer was killed, but he has carried this grudge for 25 years. Now, at 30, his aim is to kill Salman Khan. Is this the height of animal love or some strange cosmic joke?”
With these remarks, Ram Gopal Varma has once again shown his knack for generating buzz, leaving many curious about his next move in the world of cinema.
