Megastar Amitabh Bachchan attended a party organised by Ram Gopal Varma for "Satya 2", and said he has no problem with the filmmaker.

The duo has worked together in films like "Sarkar", "Sarkar Raj", "Ram Gopal Varma Ki Aag" and "Department". Problems reportedly emerged between them following Varma's abusive tweets regarding the actor's film "Bbuddah... Hoga Terra Baap".

Later, in an interview, Varma also blamed Amitabh's actor son Abhishek for leaving "Department", which turned out to be a flop.

However, Big B and RGV put up a united front at the filmmaker's party Sunday.

When the 71-year-old Big B was asked about his current camaraderie with Varma, he said: "If you think that due to the failure of films, relations will break, you are wrong."

"There is not any pinch or any sort of problem in my heart," he added.

In fact, Amitabh said he loves working with Varma, with whom he shares a mutual understanding.

"I have worked with him (Varma) in a lot of films. Initially I used to think that I have done most of my films with Hrishikesh Mukherjee, but he has even crossed that number. I enjoy working with him."

"We have a mutual understanding. He understands me and I understand him, and this makes the work much easier. A nice atmosphere is created even during the shooting and that's why I work with him again and again," said the veteran.
