Sandeep Reddy Vanga might not be among the most experienced directors in Bollywood, but he is surely one of the most explosive ones. Known for his unapologetic style since Arjun Reddy, Vanga’s latest venture was Animal, which doubled down on raw intensity and sheer audacity, raking in more than ₹900 Crore despite a storm of controversy.
While the movie had an ensemble of Rashmika Mandanna, Bobby Deol, Tripti Dimri, Anil Kapoor, and Shakti Kapoor, at its heart was the protagonist, Ranbir Kapoor. Without a doubt, he played the chaotic Ranvijay Singh with a fearlessness that matched Vanga’s vision. Ditching on his previous image among the fans, Kapoor took on whatever role the director wanted him to, and this conviction even surprised Vanga at certain times.
Sandeep Reddy Vanga Credits Ranbir Kapoor’s Conviction For The Success Of Animal
In a recent interview with Game Changers, Sandeep Reddy Vanga credited Animal’s success to an unspoken pact with Ranbir Kapoor: “Whatever I liked, he liked.” This trust defied the norm, especially for scenes that could rattle any actor. Take the n*de walk where Ranvijay walked confidently after surgery, a moment meant to shock. Vanga planned it with prosthetics for the thighs and lower body, aiming for full focus with props shielding the groin.
