Filmmaker Ram Gopal Varma, known for his critical views on all and sundry, has made an exception for SS Rajamouli. Varma believes that the man is a class apart. Ask him if Bollywood can ape Bahubali’s scale, and he says, “These kind of films can't be made everyday. I don’t think anyone in the south can do it because a film like that requires a tremendous amount of patience, passion and vision. I don’t think anybody other that Rajamouli has that.” Would he ever attempt something as ambitious? “I don’t have what it takes to make a Bahubali,” he humbly admits.
