Yet another controversy: RGV has now offended NTR fans

Director Ram Gopal Varma has created yet another controversy. This time, by comparing the late NTR with his grandson NTR Jr. In his comparison he says that senior NTR, ‘becomes a zero when compared to NTR Jr’s performance in his latest film Temper’.

Though the director did also say that he watched late NTR’s Adiviramudu 17 times, yet the unfavourable comparison has irked many NTR fans and the TD cadre too, when he took on the Telugu Desam. He tweeted, “If TDP has sense it should replace senior with junior cos junior is today and tomorrow and senior is yesterday and day before yesterday (sic)”
RGV had done something similar earlier as well.

When Mahesh Babu’s Businessman, directed by Puri Jagannath was released, RGV compared Mahesh Babu and Amitabh Bachchan. Here is what RGV said about NTR Jr in a series of tweets: “(Sic) I was a super fan of NTR nd I never liked Tarak but after seeing Temper I think Tarak F***ed 5 decades of NTR.

After seeing Temper I truly felt NTR himself should come back and learn lots of things from junior NTR. After seeing Temper I believe that if Junior NTR was born before Senior NTR he would have become a far bigger star than senior NTR.

I care a f*** on TDP reacting in an ignorant way. Its my right as a swatantra Bharat pourudu to shift frm senior to junior. After seeing Temper I honestly from my heart feel that Senior NTR is a very big super Zero compared to Junior NTR. No offence to senior NTR fans cos I am the biggest fan... this is just my emotional explosion after seeing Tarak in Temper.

My tweets were on Tarak in Temper and not on a personal and personality comparison with his Grand father. Only morons and idiots won’t understand that my tweets on Junior NTR came from my love for Senior NTR. Fr al who hv prblm wth tweets on NTR..a father will b proud of his sons achievement nd a grand father wil be even more proud of his grandson.”
