Only hours after saying that nobody can hinder the glow of the Sun with a palm, Ram Gopal Varma has called off the release of his lesbian crime drama 'Maa Ishtam', which is titled 'Dangerous' in non-Telugu languages. The call was taken apparently after a multiplex giant refused to screen the movie.
"I regret to inform that we are postponing the film KHATRA DANGEROUS due to non cooperation of many theatres due to its lesbian theme ..We will proceed in all ways to fight this injustice and come at a later date (sic)," Varma tweeted today.
Incidentally, RGV had to share the bad news on his birthday, upsetting the fans of Naina Ganguly and Apsara Rani, who have played a lesbian couple in the crime thriller.
There is this gossip that Varma has called off the release because of the poor response from audiences.
