Ram Gopal Varma announces new web series titled 'Kadapa'

<p>Bollywood director Ram Gopal Varma&#39;s latest foray into the world of web series with a trailer&nbsp;on Mumbai&#39;s underworld has created a huge buzz on social media.</p>

<p>The web series named &quot;Guns and Thighs&quot;&nbsp;after Ram Gopal Varma&#39;s autobiography with the same name published two years ago is a hard-hitting account of Mumbai&#39;s dark underbelly which was once dominated by the mafia. The nearly seven-minute long trailer trending on the net in true RGV style states it is a story on&nbsp;the &quot;saga of Mumbai mafia&quot;.</p>

<p>In a series of tweets, the director said he named the series &quot;Guns and Thighs&quot;&nbsp;because it is a &quot;synonym for power and sex which are primary motors of nature in any politics of a criminal nature&quot;.</p>

<p>The controversial Bollywood director who has often clashed with India&#39;s censor board took a swipe at the film body, declaring, &quot;a web series allows an exponential and existential form of story telling which a time and censor-restricted medium can never allow&quot;.</p>

<p>&quot;Film characters have a primary finite life and real characters have infinite life but web series strike both a primary and infinite balance,&quot; he said in his tweet.</p>
