Ram
Gopal
Varma's
desi
take
on
the
Hollywood
classic
The
Godfather
with
his
Amitabh
Bachchan
starrer
Sarkar
franchise,
is
known
for
the
veteran
actor's
iconic
character
Subhash
Nagre
aka
Sarkar.
While
the
first
film
in
the
franchise
released
in
2005,
Varma
helmed
Sarkar
2
in
2008
and
Sarkar
3
in
2017.
Meanwhile,
all
those
who
have
been
eagerly
waiting
since
then
to
watch
Big
B
reprise
his
role
of
the
godfather
in
Sarkar
4,
might
be
disappointed
with
Ram
Gopal
Varma's
latest
revelation.
Recently,
while
speaking
with
ETimes,
the
Rangeela
director
said
that
he
has
plans
to
team
up
with
Senior
Bachchan
for
a
project,
but
Sarkar
4
is
not
one
of
them.
Speaking
about
why
he
has
no
plans
of
making
Sarkar
4
as
of
now,
the
filmmaker
told
the
leading
daily,
"Sarkar
4
is
not
on
top
of
my
mind
for
sure,
because
it
will
be
a
case
of
overstretching
a
character
and
story.
Even
if
you
look
at
the
three-film
series
of
Godfather
(1972,
1974
and
1990),
no
one
let
Francis
Ford
Coppola
make
part
four.
I'm
sure
they
did
it
with
good
reason.
The
more
you
stretch
something,
the
more
impact
it
loses."
On
being
asked
about
collaborating
with
Amitabh
Bachchan,
Ram
Gopal
Varma
said,
"I'd
rather
do
something
new,
and
explore
a
genre
with
Mr
Bachchan
that
I
haven't
done
before.
I
don't
want
to
go
back
to
him
to
do
Sarkar
for
the
fourth
time.
In
fact,
I
had
something
in
mind,
but
COVID-19
threw
my
plans
off-gear.
Once
I
complete
my
current
lot
of
films,
I
will
go
back
to
what
I
have
in
mind
for
him."
Speaking
about
Amitabh
Bachchan,
the
veteran
superstar
has
some
exciting
projects
lined
up
which
includes
Ranbir
Kapoor-Alia
Bhatt's
Brahmastra,
Nag
Ashwin's
yet-to-be-titled
film
with
Prabhas
and
Deepika
Padukone,
Ajay
Devgn's
directorial
venture
Mayday
and
Nagraj
Manjule's
Jhund.
