Indian film director Ram Gopal Varma has once again shocked his fans and film critics by announcing the use of artificial intelligence to create music in his upcoming projects. Known for his films like "Company", "Rangeela", "Sarkar" and "Satya", Varma has announced the launch of a new project titled "RGV Den Music".

An innovative approach to filmmaking

The director stated that from now on all his works will use exclusively music generated by artificial intelligence. His new film "Saree" will be the first project to use music created with AI applications such as Suno and Udio.

"Music is born from your thoughts, and it is important to clearly understand what you want to get from the program. Taste will remain the main criterion"

Artificial Intelligence vs. Musicians: Advantages and Challenges

Varma urges other filmmakers to embrace the new technology, emphasizing its advantages in speed and cost-effectiveness. He harshly criticizes musicians and composers for the constant delays and high cost of their services, arguing that human factors slow down the process.

This decision by Varma appeared against the background of the wider implementation of artificial intelligence in creative processes, which causes both admiration and concern. Some well-known directors, such as Christopher Nolan, have expressed doubts about over-reliance on AI, believing that it cannot replace human intuition in art.

India is at the forefront of film production

As a leader in film production, India produces between 1, 500 and 2, 000 films annually, and its music industry generates up to 25, 000 new songs. However, Varma predicts that as technology advances, musicians, composers and singers may disappear as artificial intelligence becomes more advanced.

Cooperation with technological startups

To protect the rights to his AI-generated creations, the director has partnered with startups Reclaim Protocol and Story Protocol, which use cryptographic proofs. Varma adds that many of his fellow filmmakers are also interested in using artificial intelligence, and predicts that the technology will further change the Indian film industry in the coming years.
