Raktacharitra and Gangs of wasseypur : similarities and differences 
Revenge is the purest emotion as mentioned in Mahabharat Raktacharitra and Gangs of wasseypur are the movies which basically talk about revenge.In these two movie protagonist kill people , abuse them badly , reach high point in cruelty but they have enough reasons to get sympathy and because of those reasons its ok with the audience even if protagonist kill innocent people.It is said ' If you argue correctly you are never wrong ' this is 100% true in this case.

However both these movies are dealing with post Independence era and power struggle.Raktachritra is about Paritala Ravi criminal turned politician from Andhra Pradesh who takes revenge of murder of his father and brother.Gangs of wassepur(GOW) is power stuggle between pathans , Qureshi and Ramadir singh .The basic difference between two movies is  Raktacharitra is for masses and GOW is for masses.The reasons provided for voilence in Raktacharitra are too simplified and one can easily follow the story that is killing pratap ravi's father and brother.In G.O.W.  killing of sardar khan's father is shown  but one needs to understand why sardar khan think he will not shoot Ramadir singh instead he says "kehke loonga "(will take revenge) .

In Raktcharitra pratap ravi's father shwon as Dalit leader who unites Dalit people living in anadpur  to fight against local MLA Naagmani readdy. In further scenes in movies struggle between Dalits and landlords is missing , two clans only fight for survival , revenge and for supremacy .In GOW Qureshi , Pathans are main rival but Ramadir singh emerges as a landlord,businessman,politicians who stirs the situation and become bahubali of the area.

Later Pathan fights with singh as well as Qureshi's to dominate the region.

The difference between protagonist is very interesting . Ravi's character in Raktcharitra is shown as man of his principles , there is scene where Ravi's girlfriend asks him ,'why didnt you say no to my father when he asked you do you believe in god, you could have answered yes and impressed my father.Ravi replies to her saying ,"I dont do things which I dont like "

Director has tried to collect moral support for the character for the violence he will be performing in later parts of the film.
