Ram Gopal Varma always chooses scripts that are a tad different from the regular mainstream commercial cinema. His upcoming film Raktha Charithra is based on the story of the late leader Paritala Ravi and his opponent Maddelacheruvu Suri.
The film would have Bollywood actor Vivek Oberoi playing the role of Ravi and Kollywood actor Suriya playing the role of Suri. Vivek is reported to have already started doing the homework for his lead role. He is studying the life of the slain leader and about his experiences. The Bollywood actor is truly excited about playing this role and says he owes it to RGV. Kollywood star Suriya would join the Raktha Charithra team after finishing his Kollywood assignments.
