Long Gamma Ray Bursts (GRBs) originate from the collapse of massive, rotating stars. We aim to model the process of stellar collapse in the scenario of a self-gravitating collapsing star. We account for the changes in Kerr metric induced by the growth of the black hole, accretion of angular momentum, as well as the self-gravity effect due to a large mass of the collapsing stellar core falling onto black hole in a very short time. We also investigate the existence of accretion shocks in the collapsar, and role of magnetic field in their propagation. We compute the time-dependent axially-symmetric General Relativistic magnetohydrodynamic model of a collapsing stellar core in the dynamical Kerr metric. We explore the influence of self-gravity in such star, where the newly formed black hole is increasing the mass, and changing its spin. The Kerr metric evolves according to the mass and angular momentum changes during the collapse. We parameterize the rotation inside the star, and account for the presence of large-scale poloidal magnetic field. For the set of the global parameters, such as the initial black hole spin, and initial content of specific angular momentum in the stellar envelope, we determine the evolution of black hole parameters (mass and spin) and we quantify the strength of the gravitational instability, variability timescales and amplitudes. We find that the role of the gravitational instability measured by the value of the Toomre parameter is relatively important in the innermost regions of the collapsing star. The character of accretion rate variability strongly depends on the assumption of self-gravity in the model, and is also affected by the magnetic field. Additional factors are initial spin and rotation of the stellar core.
