Ram Gopal Varma is back in Mumbai and as usual he is stirring up a storm. He took to social media to talk about Shah Rukh Khan’a decision to play a dwarf in Aanand L Rai’s next. RGV said, “Megastar SRK becoming ordinary Fan, dwarf etc is as big a blunder as what Kamal Haasan did to lose his stardom to Rajinikanth (Salman Khan). Kamal was as big a superstar as Rajinikanth till he started doing dwarf, fat, tall roles etc. As a fan I hope SRK doesn’t listen to wrong advisers. Great actors are a dime a dozen in NSD, stage etc whereas stars like SRK come blessed by God/Allah/Buddha etc, which is what SRK is not realising. Clint Eastwood super star for 30 years being himself. I don’t believe in God but as fan I pray to Allah that SRK realises the truth. SRK must learn from mistakes of Kamal and not listen to near and dear ones who are stopping him from becoming a Rajinikanth. I call SRK as megastar become he neither has muscles of Salman nor workmanship of Aamir but yet he is taller than both by being just himself. Rajinikanth is Rajinikanth because he is always himself and Kamal always trying to be someone else..I hope SRK will remain like himself, like Salman.”
