I Admire Women's Bodies, But Not Their Brains: Filmmaker Ram Gopal Varma

Mumbai: Filmmaker Ram Gopal Varma, who had earlier said to Suchitra Krishnamoorthy during a Twitter banter that he likes women’s bodies and not their brains, still maintain his stance.
In an interview, Times of India asked him on his stance on the same, he said that the same thing is mentioned in his book, Gun and Thighs, and he still maintains his statement.
He further added, “The brain does not have a gender. A woman can have it, a man can have it. The sexual aspect is very particular and specific. A woman has an extra thing which is her sensuality and which I admire.”
When asked about his equation with Karan Johar after the ‘Bhoot; The Haunted Ship’ row, he said, “I last chatted with him when I let him have the title ‘Bhoot’ for his film ‘Bhoot- The Haunted Ship’. After that, there has been no communication between us even on Twitter. I think the media played up our banter a bit too much.”
Talking about his base shift to Goa, he said, “Goa is best suited for the kind of projects I am looking at. My office ‘Factory’ is not in Mumbai anymore. I was in Hyderabad for a major part of the lockdown but have shifted out of Mumbai in the past few months. Everyone has got used to a different way of communicating; personal meetings are a thing of the past. Everybody is talking and doing meetings on online chats”.
