Ram Gopal Varma takes a dig at Rajinikanth, gets trolled in return

If there is one subject where Ram Gopal Varma has specialised more than in filmmaking, then it’s creating controversies. It takes one real guts to take a dig at a superstar like Rajinikanth and RGV sure does not run short of it. He recently watched ‘Kotigobba 2’ and showered praises on Kannada actor Kichcha Sudeep. He could very well do it without mentioning Rajinikanth, but it’s RGV guys!

Here’s what he tweeted!

@KicchaSudeep I just saw kotigobba 2 and I honestly think u shud change ur name from Kiccha Sudeepa to Rajni Sudeepa..???

@KicchaSudeep But Rajni can do just only one type whereas u proved ur better versatality from Autograph to Eega to Kotigobba 2 to many more

@KicchaSudeep U can anyday do a Robot in ur sleep but Rajnikant can’t do a Eega even in his dream..Respect?

Sounds like a flattering compliment, right? But then, who would dare to call himself greater than Thalaiva? Sudeep was at his humble best and politely turned it down.

@RGVzoomin thanks fr th appreciation sir….but I’m nowhere close nor a comparison to th two legends,,Vishnusir & RajiniSir..

Worse, RGV’s tweet irked Rajinikanth fans too, and they threw it back.

@vijay_Aero @RGVzoomin thank god film making became digitized! All the FILM #RGV wasted would have gone as toilet paper!
