Ram Gopal Varma’s Rakta Charitra is making news. The director has roped in Shatrughan Sinha to play NT Rama Rao in the movie after announcing that Vivek Oberoi will play the lead role, based on Paritala Ravindra who had a serious criminal record, but still contested and won elections after getting a ticket from the Telugu Desam Party.
