MUMBAI: Ram Gopal Varma‘s upcoming film Rakta Charitra is set to create history in Bollywood.

This is the first film in Indian cinema to release in two parts. Both films will be released in October and will be of two hours and ten minutes duration each.
Part II will release three to four weeks after Part I hits the screens.

As per Varma, it‘s a record that he has not just completed the prequel but the sequel is ready too.

The film is based on real life events in the life of slain leader Paritala Ravindra played by Vivek Oberoi and Maddelacheruvu Suri by South actor Surya. Shatrughan Sinha is enacting the role of NT Rama Rao.

Due to the violence quotient in Rakta Charitra, Varma has advised women and children not to watch the movie at all saying, "this film is for men only."

The film has been made in Hindi, Tamil and Telugu.
