Filmmaker Ram Gopal Varma s 53 today but, in a series of tweets, he shows no signs of celebrating. Quite the opposite, in fact.
RGV, as the director is known, describes today as his 'deathday' and he doesn't want your wishes either:
I am dead since long nd for the sins I commited I don't think I will ever be reincarnated..so don't waste time by wishing me many returns

Neither the best wishes of my well wishers will make my birthday better nor the curses of my haters will make it worse

My so called Happy Birthday is being made a vey Unhappy Birthday by inundating it with fake and reasonless luv .I any day prefer the hate

RGV's often provocative tweets have seen him trade insults online with director Karan Johar. Last August, he was booked by Pune police for allegedly offensive tweets about Lord Ganesha.
Director of acclaimed films such as Satya, Company and and Sarkar, RGV's last few films have been poorly received by critics and audiences alike.
