\r\nRGV on SRK. Ram Gopal Varma\'s evergreen classic Rangeela hit the screens on 28 November once again. Ram Gopal Varma speaking to scribes revealed why he didnot direct Bollywood Badshah Shah Rukh Khan.\r\nRam Gopal Varma said &ldquo;We had many meetings, but I always felt Shah Rukh is like a live wire bursting with energy. My filmmaking style is composed and intense. Restricting Shah Rukh to that space felt unfair to him and to the fans who come expecting his trademark charm and charisma. At one point, I approached him for Company. But Mallik&rsquo;s character needed to be very laid-back and lazy that&rsquo;s the opposite of what people expect from Shah Rukh. I had a terrific story for him, but it didn&rsquo;t happen.&rdquo;\r\nRam Gopal Varma revealed&nbsp; &ldquo;When you tell Shah Rukh about a scene, he gets up and just does it. He&rsquo;s fantastic. I felt there was nothing for me to do in his film. Directors don&rsquo;t make a big difference in his movies because he can hold the camera entirely on his own. That&rsquo;s a very different kind of stardom.&rdquo;\r\nCurrently Ram Gopal Varma is teaming with Manoj Bajpayee with the horror thriller Police Station Mein Bhoot. The film stars&nbsp; Genelia Deshmukh, and Ramya Krishnan in important roles.\r\n
