It’s been over two months since Animal, the second Bollywood film directed by Telugu filmmaker Sandeep Reddy Vanga, hit the big screens. Despite the time passed, both the movie and its director continue to generate news, primarily for negative reasons.
Prominent figures like Javed Akhtar, Anupama Chopra, and Kiran Rao have criticised Vanga’s portrayal of female characters in his films, including Animal. Undeterred by the backlash, Sandeep is actively responding to critics with logical arguments in interviews.
In a recent interview, he talked about Kangana Ranaut. He mentioned, “If I get a chance, if I feel she will fit into it, I will go and narrate the story. I have seen a lot of her films, and I like her performances. So if she is giving a negative comment about Animal, I don’t mind. I don’t get angry either.”
Kangana Ranaut, known for her social media presence, took a satirical swipe at Vanga. She posted, “Review and criticism are not the same; every kind of art should be reviewed and discussed – it is a normal thing. The way Sandeep Ji showed respect towards me by smiling at my review, it can be said that he not only makes manly films, but his attitude is also manly. Thank you, sir.”
She continued, “But please don’t ever give me any role; otherwise, your alpha male heroes will become feminists, and then your films will also be defeated. You make blockbusters; the film industry needs you.” It remains to be seen how Sandeep Reddy Vanga will respond to Kangana’s comments.
