RGV's next based on a chapter from 'Rakht Charitra'

"I will never forget the incidents I came across and the people I met during the making of 'Rakht Charitra'. But I couldn't do even 10 percent justice to whatever I encountered in both parts of 'Rakht Charitra' due to several reasons," he said in the video.

RGV's "Rakht Charitra" is a biopic based on the life of factionist-turned-politician Paritala Ravi.

"Just like the Mahabharat, 'Rakht Charitra' too has many chapters. One such chapter is the killing of Obul Reddy by Paritala Ravi's henchmen. I've decided to turn that chapter into a film called 'Spot'," he said.

He added that "Spot" will throw light on the reasons and planning behind Reddy's murder in broad daylight in an apartment in Hyderabad.

"Obul Reddy's killing that shook the entire state Hyderabad took place in 1996 in Masab Tank. I've learnt about everything behind this murder from the people who were involved in it recently. The details gave me goosebumps," Varma said.

I've written some bad films: Anurag Kashyap

"I've made good movies, but I've written some bad films. I won't take their names as they are by some other filmmakers' movies. But the ones the audience didn't like are the ones I am talking about," the "Gangs of Wasseypur" director said in a group interview here on Monday.

The filmmaker, who is set to release his directorial "Bombay Velvet" in 2015, says he needs to make a film every year."I've to make a film every year. If my previous work is successful, it encourages me to experiment more. Every film gives you the freedom to do more and freedom has to be earned," he said at the Film Bazaar's session titled "Master Class: How and Why to maximise your film. Is there a formula?".

During the session, he also rued the paucity of exhibition space in the country."We need more exhibition space and the Indian government should create it," he said.

Kashyap also believes that some of the Marathi and Tamil films need to be discovered.

"There are some great regional films. I think some of the Marathi and Tamil films are better than Hindi movies, but they don't get discovered because of distribution issues in those regions," said Kashyap, who feels filmmakers don't encourage each other.

"If a movie doesn't release in a theater, people download it from the internet. Filmmakers don't pay and watch," he said.

He also wants people to take Indian film festivals "seriously"."We have to make festivals respectable. It is an exhibition space, not a place for competition," he said.
