A long time ago, a very bad civil engineer from Vijayawada embarked on a remarkable journey that truly transformed many aspects of film-making in India. He is none other than Ram Gopal Varma a.k.a RGV. Love him or hate him, you can’t deny the fact that this maverick genius changed the way we watch gangster flicks and horror dramas. Innovative camera angles coupled with an effective background score is RGV’s hallmark.

“My 5 yrs in college mde me a bad civil engineer bt also mde me a decent enough cinema engineer..so u can wish me happy cinema engineers day. Wht I obsrvd about girls frm back benches nd frm goondaa elements in the campus nd the gang fights taught me a lot bout cinema engineering” tweeted Ramu.

RGV said many times before that his college days proved to be the inspiration behind the path-breaking movie ‘Shiva’. Legend has it that RGV sketched out the story of Shiva on the back of a paper napkin in 30minutes after Nagarjuna rejected the story of ‘Rathri’
