Ram Gopal Varma is a popular Indian director who has presented the audience with several hits in the past. The filmmaker does not shy away from calling a spade and that is exactly what he did through a series of tweets recently. He called out the makers of Shahid Kapoor’s Jersey, making the prediction that the era of remakes is now over. He also lauded south Indian film industries for presenting hits like Pushpa, RRR, and KGF: Chapter 2.

For the unversed, Shahid’s new film is a remake of a national-award-winning Telugu film starring Nani in the lead role. The movie is being heavily appreciated by the masses but the box office numbers are slightly affected by the magnum opus KGF: Chapter 2, which was only released a week prior to the sports drama.

In the most recent development, Ram Gopal Varma has introspected on the ‘disastrous fate’ of Jersey, calling it the end of Bollywood remakes. “The DISASTROUS fate of JERSEY film in Hindi signals the DEATH of REMAKES for the simple reason it has been proved multiple times that dubbed films like #Pushpa #RRR #KGF2 are doing far better than originals if the content is good #DeathOfRemakes”, he tweeted.
