RGV on Padmaavat vs God, Sex and Truth: May the best woman win

Mumbai: Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s ‘Padmaavat’ is finally releasing in theatres after much delay. This movie, starring Deepika Padukone, Shahid Kapoor and Ranveer Singh in lead roles, literally shook the industry. Neeraj Pandey’s ‘Aiyaary’, starring Sidharth Malhotra, Manoj Bajpayee, Pooja Chopra and Rakul Preet Singh, shifted their release from Republic Day. Sanjay Leela Bhansali even went on to request Akshay Kumar to shift his movie ‘Padman’s date from Republic Day to another time. Akshay, despite announcing his movie first, obliged to SLB and shifted his dat to clash with ‘Aiyaary’ once again. Both the movies now release on 9^th February. ‘Pari’, which was going to release on February 9^th too, smartly shifted its date to 2^nd March. Luv Ranjan’s ‘Sonu Ke Titu Ki Sweety’, starring the ‘Pyaar Ka Punchnama’ gang Kartik Aaryan, Nushrat Bharucha and Sunny Singh, also shifted its release to 23^rd February. But Ram Gopal Varma has no fear. He is sure that he wants to release his movie ‘God, Sex And Truth’ along with ‘Padmaavat’.

The director in fact even tweeted the same, rather challenged Deepika Padukone, saying ‘let the best woman win’. Here’s his tweet:

RGV earlier even went on to compare both the movies, calling one Social Controversy and the other a Historical Controversy. This is what his tweet read:

The trailer received a mixed response on YouTube and Twitter with several social users lauding the filmmaker for his courage, the visualisation, quotes, music and 'thought-provoking concept.' The video also didn’t go well with some of the viewers, who called it ‘crap’, ‘sh*ttiest’ thing ever, while some took a dig, referring it to Karni Sena, 'Padmaavat', male pornstar Johnny Sins and more.

The filmmaker has shot with pornstar Mia Maldova for a ‘philosophical treatise’, with a familiar abbreviation, GST, standing for 'God, Sex and Truth.'

The director made the revelation on Twitter about the ‘revolutionary sexual philosophy’ and how it was GST, ‘truth behind sex as intended by god’ and calling the experience of filming ‘elevating and thought provoking’.

Mia expressed her delight on her Twitter handle (alert: NSFW) in becoming only the second adult star after Sunny Leone to be shot by an Indian feature filmmaker.
