Ram Gopal Varma is truly apologetic on calling Tiger Shroff a woman

Filmmaker Ram Gopal Varma manages to stay in the limelight thanks to his controversial tweets, and habit of bashing celebs for no reason. His target was Tiger Shroff as he called him a “woman” and posted some derogatory tweets about him. Actor Vidyut Jammwal exposed a phone conversation with the filmmaker and that put RGV in a fix, who eventually had to clarify his tweets. Tiger, on the other hand, chose to maintain a stoic silence as he did not say anything negative about RGV or the incident. Now, in a recent interview, RGV opened up on the Tiger Shroff woman remark and he is apologetic for the same. (Also Read: Ram Gopal Varma strikes again, questions the credibility of National Award)

Speaking with Indian Express, RGV said, “I have already apologised. I shouldn’t have made fun of Tiger that way. I haven’t met Vidyut after what happened, but we spoke over the phone. I have realised how much my Twitter account is an extension of my personality, it shouldn’t hurt anyone. So I apologised, genuinely. But people miss out on all the times that I have made fun of myself. Maximum jokes are on me, but people don’t see that.”

He was asked if he would be ready to work with Tiger Shroff and Vidyut Jammwal. He said, “Both of them will give me one kick first! But if you are asking about working with them, the way their image is right now and their mannerisms – I don’t make that kind of films.” Meanwhile, on the work front, Ram Gopal Varma’s upcoming political thriller ‘Sarkar 3’ starring megastar Amitabh Bachchan, Manoj Bajpayee, Jackie Shroff, Amit Sadh, Yami Gautam in lead roles. The movie is scheduled to release on May 12, 2017.
