Ram Gopal Varma and Puri Jagannadh have long been known in the film industry as the guru and sishya duo. Over the years, both have carved their own distinct paths, but now, interestingly, they seem to be switching places—literally.
For decades, RGV made Mumbai his base while directing several memorable Bollywood films. However, ever since his second innings in Telugu cinema with Rakta Charitra, he began dividing his time between Mumbai and Hyderabad. Before the COVID era, he was almost fully stationed in Hyderabad, operating from his office famously known as “The Den.”
Now, sources close to the filmmaker reveal that RGV is permanently shifting back to Mumbai, as he has multiple Hindi projects lined up. He is currently busy with a film starring Manoj Bajpayee, while another major project — Sarkar 4, featuring Amitabh Bachchan and Abhishek Bachchan — is set to go on floors soon. Reports from Mumbai also suggest that a few more Bollywood ventures are in the pipeline, keeping RGV occupied in the city for the foreseeable future.
On the other hand, Puri Jagannadh’s journey has taken the opposite route. After spending years in Hyderabad, Puri shifted to Mumbai during the making of Liger and continued to stay there for a while. But now, with his focus back on Telugu cinema, Puri has returned to Hyderabad.
So, as fate would have it — the guru (RGV) is heading back to Mumbai, while the sishya (Puri) returns to Hyderabad — a perfect role reversal that’s caught the attention of Tollywood circles.
