Mumbai: Filmmaker Ram Gopal Varma's Satya 2, touted to be his last underworld-based movie, is set for Friday release and he confesses that he can't escape the film's comparison with Satya, one of his best works.
"Comparisons are inevitable, you can't escape comparisons. But once the audience enters the theatre and if we manage to set a premise, after that the film has to be true to the characters in the story," Varma told reporters in a group interview.
"Yes, audience will make comparisons between both the films, but I hope Satya 2 makes a mark for itself," he added.
Varma has clarified that Satya 2 is not a sequel to his 1998 super hit gangster drama Satya, which starred southern actor JD Chakravarthy and Urmila Matondkar in the lead roles, but it was Manoj Bajpayee, a struggler that time, who walked away with accolades.
Now Satya 2 is also launching new faces, including Puneet Singh, who plays the main lead. It will also introduce Anaika Soti and Aradhana Gupta.
Varma believes in spontaneity.
"I don't believe in preparation there is a clarity in making films as a director. I believe in spontaneity."
