I Am Not Making The Biopic: Ram Gopal Varma On Bruce Lee's Biopic

Ram Gopal Varma did it again! The director is never out of news as he is always embroiled in some or the other controversy in the wake of his controversial statements. Just days ago, the Satya director made derogatory remarks on actor Tiger Shroff and now it is time for filmmaker Shekhar Kapur to bear the brunt.

Sometime ago, Kapur announced that he will make a film on Hong Kong-American martial artist and actor, Bruce Lee, which will be titled Little Dragon. Just after the announcement, Ram Gopal Varma also announced the same and tweeted, “Just because of my devotional worship of Bruce Lee I am going to make his biopic and release it same time as Shekar kapur's authorised one. I have nothing against Shekar kapoor who I admire immensely but it's just my obsessive fascination for Bruce Lee. Inspite of closeness of family and  brilliance of @shekharkapur i believe only I can do justice to do his biopic. I know tremendously more about Bruce Lee than his daughter Shannon Lee,his wife Linda Lee and @shekharkapur. Bruce Lee is the one and only who I loved more than sex”.

The Satya director, however, denied the claims in an interview with Pinkvilla and said that what he said was just for fun. He said, "No no, I actually said it for fun. I just tweeted about it. I am not making the biopic". We guess this will give Shekhar a sigh of relief!
