Coming down heavily on the editor-in-chief of Republic TV, Arnab Goswami, filmmaker Ram Gopal Varma on Monday took to his Twitter handle to announce that he would make a film titled ‘Arnab -The News Prostitute’.
In a series of tweets, the filmmaker explained why he is making a film on him and called out the journalist for his TV debates on Bollywood.
There has been a lot of debate around the functioning of Bollywood after the unfortunate demise of Sushant Singh Rajput who allegedly committed suicide.
Goswami has also commented on Bollywood in connection with actor Rajput’s death.
Varma said he is shocked to see Goswami calling Bollywood as the dirtiest industry.
Reacting to Goswami’s comments on Bollywood, Varma tweeted: “Was shocked to see #ArnabGoswami talking about Bollywood in such a horrible way..He calls it the dirtiest industry ever with criminal connections , it’s full of Rapists, gangsters, sexual exploiters and what not?”
“It beats me in what dumb way #ArnabGoswami can combine the deaths of Divya Bharthi, Jiah Khan, Sridevi and Sushant into one case and claim that the murderer is Bollywood.. incidentally the 4 deaths happened over a span of nearly 25 years,” Varma tweeted.
“And in all the four cases of Divya, Jiah, Sridevi and Sushant there were completely different people and circumstances ..But in Arnab’s mind they are all one and had been killed by an entity called Bollywood,” the filmmaker said.
My one last word of advise to #AdityaChopra , @karanjohar , @MaheshNBhatt @iamsrk @BeingSalmanKhan and many others, is that it’s not enough to create heroes in films and be heroes in films ,but it’s also important to stand up to villains like #ArnabGoswamy

Filmmaker Varma said: “That guy #ArnabGoswami is banking on the fact that we don’t have the spine and as long as he runs the debate he will anyway make sure no one’s point of view is ever heard and that’s his modus operandi anyway.”
Announcing that he will make a film on Goswami, Varma said: “I for one am feeling very strongly about this and I decided to make a film on #ArnabGoswami in which I will take the clothes off his facade and make him naked exposing the lengths and breadths of all his vital corrupt stats.”
“My film on him is titled “ARNAB” THE NEWS PROSTITUTE. After extensively studying him I mulled on whether the tagline should be The News Pimp or The News Prostitute though both are relevant I finally settled on prostitute for its sound,” Varma said.

“I know I used some hard language in these tweets to describe him but I took a cue of them from our very own dirty mouthed #ArnabGoswamy,” he added.
I believe that #ArnabGoswami has no other agenda but to come across like the ultimate hero a Dabaangish Salman Khan, kind by making all the film industry biggies to run for cover and for that purpose he will MURDER TRUTH
