Hyderabad: ‘RGV The Blue Book’, handwritten by Kanth’risa, is a unique philosophical dissertation on the often-controversial filmmaker Ram Gopal Varma. His esoteric persona, life philosophy, insights, and understandings, make the book an interesting read.

It’s one of the rare handwritten books in this age of modern printing, reminiscing the charm of handwritten manuscripts of the bygone era. It is also the first handwritten, hand drawn manuscript, printed in a book form with several free-flowing illustrations, compositions, and artworks.

There are great many books on philosophy by enlightened thinkers and authors like Frederick Nische, Jean Paul Sartre, Any Rand, Ramana Maharshi, Osho, Krishnamurthy, but this ranks over all of them purely for being written on someone who is contemporary. Here is someone, who is making a mark by taking the immensely complex world head on, while not compromising on his integrity. Varma is unperturbed by the trail of controversy his comments leave behind and is as ever brimming with humour, sensitivity, and creativity.

In the book, the author delved deeply into the complex traits Varma is known for, including his actions, words, insights, behaviour, gestures, analytical skills, logic, reasoning, sarcasm, and more, spanning over six months, to script this book. During this period, he discovers Varma to be a philosopher, a man enlightened in disguise and a mad man in general.

Commenting on the book Ram Gopal Varma said, “There is no semblance between me and the Buddha. I went after wine and women, and Buddha went after God. I revere the one who created the woman and will only bow to him.”

Speaking at the launch, Varma said, “I don’t take anybody seriously, including myself. When Kanth’risa told me he wrote a book by name ‘Blue Book’, I told him I knew blue film and didn’t have a clue about blue book, then he gave me a theory saying the colour of philosophy is blue. But even if I don’t understand, if the other person strongly believes in something, I respect him.”

Varma said he was not in sync with “associating me with the Buddha”. “This is a book of quotations, it’s a new experiment with quotes and sketches, that’s the beauty of this book,” he added.
Kanth’risa said, “Varma is one of the interesting persons I have come across and tried to explore more about him.”

Tanikella Bharani, who was also present, said that this book is written by an enlightened person on another enlightened soul.

The book is also unique for being world’s maiden book to be scripted on iPad. The author used a powerful and intuitive digital illustration App, ‘Procreate’. Kanth’risa leveraged his refined tech skills to script the book despite the app being more of an art studio and in normal course incompatible to compose a book.
