Maverick filmmaker Ram Gopal Varma is making a film titled "Rai", which is based on the life of former underworld don Muthappa Rai.
"'Rai' mega launch. First look of the film I am making based on the life of underworld don Muthappa Rai... The greatest gangster ever," Varma tweeted on Sunday.
The "Satya" helmer, who currently awaits the release of his forthcoming film "Veerappan", also shared information about the budget of "Rai" and mentioned that it would be his "most expensive film ever".
"'Rai' film is going to cost more than Rs.55 crore, which will be my most expensive film ever by leaps and bounds," he said.
"'Rai' is going to be shot in Mangalore, Bengaluru, Mumbai, Dubai, London and Kazakhstan," Varma added.
