Sandeep Reddy Vanga created a sensation with Arjun Reddy and he went on to remake the film as Kabir Singh in Hindi. He bagged an opportunity to work with Ranbir Kapoor in Animal and the film is heading for release on December 1st. Here are the highlights from the interview of Sandeep Reddy Vanga in his words:
Animal is a film that narrates the bonding between a father and his son. It is also the story of a youngster who goes to any extent for his family.
Animal has no relation or coincidence with Arjun Reddy. The lead actor is emotionally high throughout the film.
Animal also has a high dose of action throughout along with a family drama.
Both Anil Kapoor and Rashmika’s roles have enough importance in Animal. Rashmika’s role is differently written and she did it well.
Animal is a film that has several layers and it needs to be told in 3 hours and 21 minutes. It is just 15 minutes more than Arjun Reddy which is a love story. I am confident that the audience would enjoy the film in theatres.
It is quite easy to work with an experienced actor like Ranbir Kapoor. I was very comfortable with Ranbir and he is one of the finest actors of the country.
Bobby Deol played the role of the lead antagonist and it will be a surprise in the film.
Harshavardhan Rameshwar worked on the background score.
I love Editing apart from directing a film. Editing is quite a tough job. I turned Editor for Animal as no one other than me understands my film better.
Rashmika dubbed for her role in Telugu, Hindi and Kannada languages.
My next film is Spirit with Prabhas. The pre-production work starts next year and the shoot commences in September 2024. After Spirit, I will be working with Allu Arjun in 2025.
I have narrated scripts for Mahesh Babu and Ram Charan. Hope to work with them very soon.
