What is Koimoi Directors’ Ranking?
For those who aren’t aware, in Koimoi Directors’ Power Index, aka Directors’ Ranking, we rank directors on the basis of their films in coveted box office clubs. For example, 100 points for a film in a 100-crore club, 200 points for a film in a 200-crore club, and so on. For each film in the top 10 grossers overseas, 50 points are given.
Sandeep Reddy Vanga’s current status in Directors’ Ranking
Earlier, Sandeep Reddy Vanga had a total of 500 points, but with Animal’s entry in the 400 crore club at the Indian box office, Vanga’s tally has gone up. As the film has also made it to the top 10 overseas grossers of Bollywood, he has got 50 more points. So, as of now, Vanga’s tally stands at 650 points in the Directors’ Ranking.
