Coming from a director RGV's calibre, Im totally shocked to hear this. I dont know what prompted him to tweet this, but I completely disagree with him. People goto watch good movies. Period. If the actor is well known, the film achieves instant success. If the actor/director are unknown, it takes a while for the word to spread. RGV was an unknown when he made Shiva and so was Nagarjuna (I think), but that became a big hit. So is the case with so many other films over the years which have become hits and made their actors/directors overnight stars.

He is saying the bitter truth. It might be hard to digest his view but it is the reality. Why would films like Ready and Bodyguard be blockbusters if it was not for Salman Khan? Who cared about the director of the movie? or the story? Ramu may sound mad but he has the gutts to tell the truth. If he makes a film with Salman Khan do you think it will flop?

If those are good examples of Salman hits, there were plenty of flops of Salman movies. Why? Just put Salman, and a hit? Is it true?

EXACTLY-Who deserves credit for Satya, Shiva, Sarkar, etc? Ramu has lost his marbles!

Please read into his words , he is sarcastic there, but right or wrong we need to decide
RGV is truly genius director frm india...sad that ppl say a lot of negative things abt him rakth charitra was masterpiece of a film..even not a love story was superbly directed film.. department is going to be another classic.Also wish someday aamir works with you again.
