Filmmaker Ram Gopal Varma was a big fan of late superstar Sridevi. He has praised the Mr. India actress on many occasions. But recently his statement on Sridevi’s daughter and actress Jhanvi Kapoor has shocked everyone.
Sridevi is not visible in Jhanvi: Ram Gopal Varma
Ram Gopal Varma recently shared his opinion about Sridevi and Jhanvi Kapoor during an interview on his YouTube channel.
- He said, “I don’t see Sridevi in Jhanvi yet.”
- When he was asked about doing a film with Jhanvi Kapoor, he clearly said,
“I liked the mother, not the daughter.”
Denied the possibility of collaboration
Ram Gopal Varma also said,
“To be honest, I have not felt any connection with many big stars and actors in my career. I have no intention of doing a film with Jhanvi.”
RGV’s view on comparison with Sridevi
Jhanvi Kapoor is often compared with her mother Sridevi.
- Recently, during the photoshoot of the film Devra, her co-actor Jr NTR had said that Jhanvi’s look reflected her mother.
- But Ram Gopal Varma rejected the comparison, calling it a “Sridevi hangover”.
RGV in praise of Sridevi
Ram Gopal Varma praised Sridevi and described her acting range as unmatched.
- He said,
“Be it ‘Padharela Vayasu’ or ‘Vasant Kokila,’ Sridevi has done wonders in every character. Seeing his acting, I had forgotten that I am a filmmaker. I started seeing him as a spectator. That was his range.”
