It's not his 'department', but the joke's on Ramu

It's not his 'department', but the joke's on Ramu

Highlights

  • Filmmaker Ram Gopal Varma, who had earlier refuted reports on his differences with Sanjay Dutt, puts his foot in his mouth by finally admitting it.
  • Now that Department has released, Ram Gopal Varma has finally conceded that all was not well between him, Sanjay Dutt and co-producer Dharam Uberoi during the making of the film.
  • However, when the story about their fall-out got out, the filmmaker had ranted against the reports on a micro-blogging site addressing journalists as ‘jokers’.
  • He went a step ahead to claim that all was well between the two, and that he indeed had a great time working with Sanjay Dutt, who he has high regards for. Just like his latest release has come a cropper at the box office, Ramu too has copped-out.
  • Incidentally, the filmmaker has been questioned about changing his stance on the actor and Department by some of his followers on Twitter. Sample this.
