Ram Gopal Varma seems to play safe with his forthcoming crime thriller ‘Not a Love Story’. The film, based on the brutal murder of Neeraj Grover by the Kannada actress Maria Susairaj and her boyfriend Emili Jerome Mathew, had already landed in several controversies. Now, to avoid further hurdles, the filmmaker has filed a caveat in the court to avoid stay on the judgment on the release of his film, which is scheduled on 19 August 2011. It is caveat against an unknown person.According to a source, “With strong reactions coming from Neeraj Grover's family and friends, Ramu is anticipating that anyone can go to court and appeal for a stay on the film. Even Maria is out on bail and may want to see the film, or can demand for a stay on it. In that case, the film may get postponed or even get stuck. Ramu doesn't want his film to suffer at any cost and has taken preventive measures to ensure a hassle-free release.” According to Ram Gopal Varma, the film is not a biopic but is inspired by the true events of the case. In the film, Ajay Gehi is playing the victim Neeraj Grover, while Mahie Gill and Deepak Dobriyal are playing Maria Susairaj and Emili Jerome Mathew respectively.
