\"'MyFilmmaker Ram Gopal Varma expressed dissatisfaction with his earlier film ‘Company,’ stating his current understanding of the underworld is far deeper. He revealed a desire to remake the movie, believing he could create a more profound narrative now. Varma also shared his habit of revisiting his iconic films, finding ‘Shiva’ enjoyable but ‘Sarkar’ only ‘so-so’ after re-watching ‘The Godfather’. Ram Gopal Varma<\/a> recently admitted that he doesn’t like his film, Company starring Ajay Devgn<\/a>, Mohanlal<\/a> and others anymore. He also revealed that he would love to remake it if given the chance. <\/p>\n

On wanting to remake Company<\/p>\n

In conversation with SCREEN, he said, \u201cI would like to remake a film of mine. Remake in the sense, I would like to take its subject and make it again, and that movie is Company.\u201d<\/p>\n

On how his understanding of the underworld evolved<\/p>\n

Elaborating further, he added, “The reason is that my knowledge of the underworld has vastly increased in recent years. I didn\u2019t have that kind of knowledge when I was making the movie. It was like taking headlines from newspapers and turning them into something. So, when I look at Company through the lens of what I know about it now, I feel it looks too surface-level. I can make a far deeper film if I were to do it today.\u201d<\/p>\n

On revisiting his old films<\/p>\n

\u201cThis new habit started after I saw Satya 25 years after it was released. It evoked something in me, and I\u2019m able to do that. So, whichever film I think has been iconic in my career, I tend to revisit them now. For example, I recently saw Company and didn\u2019t like it. I saw Shiva and loved it. I saw Sarkar (2005) and felt it was so-so. The reason why I felt that way about Sarkar was that during the re-release of The Godfather (1972), I saw it again. Thus, my understanding of what I should have made with Sarkar increased,” he shared.Meanwhile, Company also starred Vivek Oberoi, and Manisha Koirala in the lead roles. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Filmmaker Ram Gopal Varma expressed dissatisfaction with his earlier film ‘Company,’ stating his current understanding of the underworld…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":248316,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[27],"tags":[15516,64,63,4057,6463,438,147439,134,47578,9710,344,104375,116869,147440],"class_list":["post-248315","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-movies","tag-ajay-devgn","tag-au","tag-australia","tag-bollywood","tag-bollywood-news","tag-company","tag-company-film-remake","tag-entertainment","tag-manisha-koirala","tag-mohanlal","tag-movies","tag-ram-gopal-varma","tag-rgv","tag-vivek-oberoi"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/248315","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=248315"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/248315\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/248316"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=248315"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=248315"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=248315"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
