IS SARKAR RAJ A REMAKE OF GODFATHER 2? MAYBE GIVEN THE FACT THAT SARKAR HAS SHADES OF GODFATHER



Sarkar 2 has a title now: Sarkar Raj. This has been confirmed by none other than varma's spokesperson Ravi Prakash. The film is virtually a coup of sorts for Ramgopal Varma, as it has the entire Bachchan clan -- Amitabh Bachchan, Abhishek Bachchan and even Aishwarya Bachchan. While Sarkar has become a box-office hit, and Amitabh Bachchan has received encomiums for his superlative performance in the film, the second film too is likely to bring in some good acclaim for Abhishek Bachchan a la Al Pacino in Godfather 2. And considering the fact that Sarkar is loosely based on Godfather, it will be not be an understatement to say that Sarkar Raj will be on the lines of Godfather 2. Must say Al Pacino worked wonders in the second edition, which has received more accolades that even the first. Will Abhishek too do an Al Pacino in Sarkar Raj?

Varma wants to do what he is good at

One fine morning Ramgopal Varma woke up from sleep and decided he would be a larger than life showman in Bollywood. Or larger than the poor mortals of Bollywood. What the heck, why should I direct, let my factory do it and let me lay a pipeline to make the money flowing into the kitty. While he went about bragging about his factory in the filmi magazines, his disciples started to give one flop after another in a continuous flow, plunging the fortunes of the factory. Now Varma has gone into an introspection mode. The result: he has taken a vow not to produce anymore films with anymore directors. He will only produce the films he is directing. Because he says that way he will be able to have control over the film production. The moral of the story: Do what you are good at!
