Filmmaker Ram Gopal Varma has clarified that actor Riteish Deshmukh is very much a part of his media-based film “Rann” despite the recent controversy following their visit to the Taj after the attacks.
He stated that the relationship between them remains untarnished and “Why should it change? Riteish and I knew exactly what happened. When we visited the Taj we had no intention of exploiting the visit by making a film. What happened was not in our control”
In case you missed out, the duo had gone to the Taj few days after the attacks with Vilasrao Deshmukh to inspect the hotel. All this sparked a huge controversy about the director and the actor wanting to capitalize on the horrific incident by turning it into a movie.
Ironically, Riteish who plays a TV journalist in “Rann”, has been quoted as saying of Varma: “Hang him if he ever does a film on 26/11.”
Varma’s retort to this was: “Please praise me if I ever do.”
However now Varma has cleared things out stating that after the duo said sorry to each other they have cleared things out and have no harsh feelings anymore.
