Ram Gopal Varma directed upcoming Hindi movie Veerappan is to release on May 27th. The extremist director collected his research material based upon interviews with Veerappan's former gang members, people who used to negotiate between him and the government and also from police officers who were a part of the operation to capture him.
It is revealed that the film will have a scene where Veerappan plans to kidnap superstar Rajinikanth, in the same way, he had kidnapped Kannada superstar Rajkumar. Fortunately, Veerappan's plan to kidnap Rajini had been failed due to unknown reasons. It is a known fact that Rajkumar was held for 108 days and finally released without hurt in November 2000. Karnataka government paid Rs 20 crore for his release.
"From all the truth I gathered, Veerappan was unbelievable, but what is even more unbelievable is the drama which went on the plan to kill him," said RGV in an interview. Sandeep Bharadwaj portrayed the title role, whereas Sachiin Joshi will be seen as the police officer. Usha Jadhav and Lisa Ray are another prominent cast in the film. As informed by RGV, Veerappan is not a remake of his Telugu-Kannada super-hit film Killing Veerappan.
