Ram Gopal Varma is known for producing some popular gangster films like ‘Satya’ and ‘Company’. Not to mention, these films also required him to have a deep insight into the lives of gangsters, which is why he had a very “human” approach to these characters.

But the opposite happened for Pharma. “A lot of people have warned me not to do it. I’m not saying someone is bad. I’m just making a film. So, they were happy. I showed the human side of it. In fact, I was the only one at that time, who didn’t get a blackmail call because of Satya.”
