Sandeep Reddy Vanga: 'I am shocked that Rashmika wasn't even nominated for Best Actress award!' 

I think Javed was triggered because Ranvijay as a character hates poetry.

People criticising Sandeep are jealous of him because he is brilliant and successful.

No one complained when Ranbir’s character put a toilet seat around sonam kapoor’s character in movie Sanju. We had to feel sympathy for that character

Sandeep vanga's on point and very much lit reply to javed akthar ji😅🙌

Vanga question on Mirzapur is very valid; biased oldies like Javed Akthar should be exposed; they are many more like him in the corporate wood.

People forget that after the “lick my shoe” dialogue he also tells his cousins to treat her with utmost respect… Bollywood can’t digest that someone from outside is changing the rules of the industry

Yes Sandeep Film making is not a joke It requires huge talent Your script and design is wonderful

Sandeep Reddy has great appreciation and admiration is 100 percent Ranbir Kapoor is the best choice for animal movie

Only Telugu guys are aware of what Vanga means when he mentiond Mirzapur dubbing in Telugu; that was in a league of its own. For non-Telugu speakers, the context is simple; it is 10 times more vulgar than the Hindi version.

I remember RGV repeating Adrian Lyne's quote in his review of Animal: "A film should not be merely liked or disliked by the audience members, but it should make them violently disagree and argue about what the film stands for", which is what Vanga achieved big time in Animal

I'm a woman i can't understand why so called feminist are crying over the film it just a film dude nobody is promoting or justifying violence in the movie movie title is Animal how can you expect hum sath sath hai if you want to get inspire then inspire from Satya prem ki Katha

I LOVE THE ART OF FILM MAKING OF SANDEEP REDDY VANGA 🧠🧠🔥🔥🔥💪💪💪👍👍👌👌🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆👑👑👑👑

Never thought in my life that one day I will follow someone who is a director.... I can't just get over this man...Sandeep ready vanga... He is going to change the indian cinema for sure..... Which he already started... Such a brave man.

He made the Animal❌He is the Animal✅

It was good to see Vanga laughing in this interview. Dude has to face a lot of criticism, which is not even constructive. Kudos to Siddharth for breaking his poker face.

Sandeep is so relaxed in this interview

I have watch Animal 4 times. I can watch another 40 times. One movie for life time❤

I agree with Sandeep vanga Javed akhtar should first watch his son web series mirzapur before commenting on animal😅😅

Unfortunately a section of Indian audience is not ready for the gem of a director like Dr. Sandeep Vanga (Dr for a reason)

I love this man. Real life alpha Chad ❤😂

Everyone can make a movie with their conviction, it's upto the audience to watch it or not , but with Vanga the hatred came from ppl who didn't even watch the movie , jus a few snippets and they made up their minds about the content .. had it been Anurag Kashyap, same ppl would have heaped praises .. that's the kind of mafia Bollywood has , noone questioned Ranbir or Anil about why they chose to their roles , instead the hatred was diverted towards Vanga .. sad. I hope he never loses his guts and keeps pushing boundaries n redefine template of movies

They dont hate his films They hate him

Sandeep reddy vanga - the man who fights back against woke people who don’t live in the real world. Trust me because of vanga so many filmmaker’s won’t filtered themselves now for anupama and tyagi girl because of him we are going to see some raw movies

You may disagree with the dialogues & few scenes but you cannot deny that he’s a good filmmaker. His eye for frames, characterisation, pop music references are something to be appreciated.

Sandeep rocked ....wokes shocked

Do you know why 'Dolby Walya' plays in the background when Ranbir is fighting (on screen) and not while others are fighting. Because Ranbir is wearing Freddy's headphones. The song was on Freddy's playlist 😃

Feeling happy with his conversation. I remember quote from him : No matter what, people will be judging somewhere . So be who you want to be

Writer Saurabh Gupta is very eloquent and can convey the process of making the movie commutatively so well !

He is so right about Mirzapur. Please check what kind of content ur own family is producing before commenting on others’ hard work. People cannot digest this talent simple.

Sandeep is casually chilling after shaking the entire existence of biased pseudo-feminists who manipulate others to cover their insecurities. Whatever flaws he has, he sure is inspirational.

Far better than the previous Vanga interviews

O Bhaisab Mirzapur wala point..

Siddharth sir Blockbuster Interview hai... Love to hear this man.. 🔥🔥sandeep reddy vanga🔥🔥

Even rabir kapoor is fond of vanga sir .. cuz we could see ranbir is acting , showing attitude like vanga sir . Such a cool humble simple director I have ever seen . So honest man ( LONG LIVE VANGA SIR)

If Shabana Azmi can win best supporting actress for RRKPK then Rashmika definitely deserved to be nominated for best actress in Filmfare. She nailed it in the confrontation scene with Ranbir in Animal.

Vanga to javed jii - jinake ghar khud sheeshe ke hote hain, ve doosaron ke gharon par patthar nahin phenkate . He is the real alpha 🔥🔥💀

Some people in bollywood can't digest that a guy from Telugu industry dominated them. They are jealous of his success.

Good that you brought writer .. the way they discussing the scenes shows how passionate the team was .

Forget about the critics and opposition lobby yaar. You have nailed it. Every frame was shot with craft. Excellent story telling and screenplay!! Kudos ❤

The director! The myth! The legend! Sandeep vanga reddy! Greatest of all time 🔥💪🏻

These so called bollywood gang messed with the wrong guy this time 😂 they thought will pressurize criticize him spread hatred as always but boy he is giving it back like a bang 🔥🔥 also as Sanjay Gupta said they should not give importance to these so called critics waste of time

34:02 Creativity should not be held hostage by someone’s idea of personal morality.. Spot on ❤

21:00 Absolutely.. The scenes were so well executed along with the dialouges..

Once there was RGV who brought new Cinema to us. (Miss old RGV though). Now SRV is there a step further engaging the audience with 'his' Cinema.

Poets - main tumhare liye chand launga, taare launga , KUCH NAHI KARTE ye log 😂😂😂😂😂 , this is what triggered Javed Akhtar

Being a psychiatrist, So glad to see sandeep sir’s thought process irl. I wouldn’t give my professional opinions over comments section (obviously). But my support is with him. Also, so glad to a director so closely bonded with the writer. Because that is why animal was a so coherent and well made.

There was nothing disgusting in Animal, the film is absolutely great in its storytelling, it keeps you in your seat intact, unlike other bollywood movies these days

What am amazing interview. I love your character Sandeep baba, amazing movie and the interveiws you give..calm and composed.

Sandeep Reddy Vanga's interview feels like therapy 🤌🏻

I Might have issues with his idealogy hate his mindset but it can't abstain me to respect his talent & conviction in filmatography

INNOVATIVE DIRECTOR, WHO EXPERIMENTS WITH HIS ART AND TRIES TO COME UP WITH SOMETHING NEW TO EXPERIENCE FOR VIEWERS! THAT TAKES GUTS! A GREAT CRAFTSMAN OF HIS ART....LOKKING FORWARD TO A DIFFERENT MORE

Sir Sandeep Reddy Vanga 🙏❤️👑

This is a very honest and accurately done interview! Actually it’s just you and Rangan Bhardwaj who have done his interview without any bias.Thanks Sidharth for always being on point with your guests and asking the “valid and right” questions!

When I saw Arjun Reddy trailor I was blown awake. Especially the last scene when he walks in the passage and the view becomes hazy and icing on the cake was the BGM.

Man he is talking about TUMBBAD. Thank you.

Love him or hate him.... But the real fact is that "You Can't Ignore Him"

This chat is so casual and yet hard hitting

ANIMAL is once in a decade film Director Sandeep is best at his craft. Truly loved the film

People criticizing Rashmika’s accent - she played a Telugu girl and speaking with an accent makes it so authentic. Even Punjabis speak Hindi with lot of Punjabi words and heavy accent, Bengalis speak with Bangla accent - is that understood by everyone ? No but no one complains and accepts it because there is a beauty in diversity, in the different slangs. Because it is Southern accent, you have a problem now - wah re hypocrites !! South directors se 1000 cr hit chahiye Bollywood ko jaise Animal and Jawaan , par South accent mein actors Hindi bolde to joke karoge ! Vijay Sethupati was also mocked just like Rashmika. I hope Rashmika gets her due recognition in other Award shows. Nepolia beti can buy all the filmfares she wants.

I LOVE THE MOVIE AND SANDEEP REDDY VANGA VIOLENT THOUGHT, AND I AM WAITING FOR ANIMAL PARK, HE THINKS OUT OF THE BOX🔥🔥💪💪👍👍👌👌🏆🏆👑👑👑🧠🧠🧠🧠

Vangaism is the new breed....we all support SRV....!! Animal biggest blockbuster of India in terms of ROI...despite being adult movie and non-family friendly movie......!!

3:12 I saw him laughing for the first time

ANIMAL is a brilliant masterpiece by Sandeep sir... and Ranbir Kapoor's acting is just too good true blue SUPERSTAR

Best interview of vanga

Can't Help but love this man!So Pure ❤

I'm a girl and I loved the movie and the characters

Most powerful host with the most powerful director

Sandeep there will be thousands who would want to rattle u but never give up. U can change the dynamics of this industry

Siddharth repeating the "balls made of steel" phase is very funny; even Vanga couldn't hold his laughter.

KGF 2 produced by farhan Akhtar had a dialogue when the girl asks Rocky why he kidnapped her & Rocky replies "Rakhne ke liye, for my entertainment.......you're my entertainment"

After RGV and Anurag Kashyap,SRV is the only honesty brutal director who isn't scared of his critics and this so called social polices😂 He broke the line and now it's time to come out and throw the unplugged ❤❤❤

Can't agree more on that Mirzapur comment😂😂😂

Exactly infedility, Sex, and gaali in Mirzapur is okay, but violence, semi nude scene and muted gaali in Animal is not fine.🤣

26:45 The Sigma Reddy Vanga!

Sandeep Reddy Wanga More Intellegent Man Sare Questions Ka Jawaab Bohat Zahanat Se Dia HA😘😘😘

South directors are very good at thier craft sandeep Reddy vanga animal was masterpiece that's why even Ranveer Singh is also organising a meeting with top 7 South film makers

33:28 ...thank you Sandeep Reddy Vanga.... I was waiting for this...🔥🔥

Sandeep's all interview is full of fire💥💯

Superman- Man of steel- Superhero Vanga man- Balls of steel- Normal human being

Love the vibe in this interview

Sandeep Reddy vanga 🔥😍

i have seen all interviews of dir sandeep sir, but this is the best and best fun interviewd by host with sandeep sir loved it

Man, this man is the best movie director this generation has produced.. Watching all these years of nonsense of movie's made by Khan's... Dude he is from south but he portraits each and every characters the best.. He portraits with dignity.. Hands down.. Vanga is a man of decency and dignified when he talks... Respect to this man 🙏..

There's SANDEEP REDDY VANGA's interview in the world now which we see and wish "Isko khatam mat karo please... yeh interview chalet rehne do" 🖤 Previously we only felt that for "SHAH RUKH KHAN ji's Interviews" Now it's same for "SANDEEP REDDY VANGA ji's interviews" 🖤 Big fan of SRV films, we won't say storewide but they are TECHNICAL MARVELS of the industry "TECHNICALLY MASTEPIECES" ANIMAL, ARJUN REDDY, KABIR SINGH. And our director AASISH DUTTA admires so much SANDEEP REDDY VANGA on his vision, editing, sound and so many technical aspects always. ANIMAL is a "technical masterpiece" no one can deny that fact. We Are Always with the SANDEEP REDDY VANGA films 🧿 - Team ABEYANCY

Sandeeps passion for cinema and his cinema is so liberating for Filmmakers like me. I absolutely love him . ❤❤❤

Bollywood intellectuals are trying to bring him down because he refuses to play by their rules.

what an interviews men loved sandeep reddy vanga...

I said it before on another of his interviews, and I will say it again Amazing interview and insight into the mind of such a visionary person. Personally loved every frame and aspect of the movie. Including the so called controversial ones, which Screenplay was very unique, game changer, and very engaging. Loved the idea of leaving hints or bits and pieces in previous scenes to then connect it going forward. Some of the parts I loved that had an amazing impact: 1. When Jijaji puts his authoritative hand on Ranbirs shoulder to stop him from seeing his father at the hospital showing he is in charge. And the reverse is done by Ranbir when he has come to kill him. Epic! 2. Ranbir asking/telling his older sister at the 60th celebration as to why the jijaji calls their dad, dad and not Sir. He even warns his younger sister on her choice....and later when the younger sister meets him after so many years at the hospital she introduces her fiance and he calls their dad 'Sir'! The expression Ranbir gives without saying a word is top-notch 3. Ranbirs son calls him 'Hero' when him and Rashmika are having a fight on the stairs and the kids see it. Again the way its directed and how suddenly you feel Ranbir melt and get emotional is kudos!

The main highlight of the film animal was its dialouge for which the audience get connected to it. Kudos to the writer and director one of the best duo ever seen😊

Sandeep garu 🔥🔥🔥

Is Sundeep is men like fearless and understanding

Greatest director with the greatest host

Mirzapur was the most violent one... If Farhan Akhtar production Mirzapur was justified then there is nothing wrong with animal..

Very valid point about Mirjapur. It's like when we point one finger towards other, 4 point towards us.

The cinematic experience of Sandeep’s films is just fantastic! Each character has a character which is unique and special and is a individual contributor in the movie . He justified every character and portrayed excellently❤ Am a woman and hats off to his craft! Only women who cannot like his work is either triggered by personal experiences or haven’t seen the movie or pure hatred !

16:34 Tumbbad mentioned by srv. Truly a Masterpiece Movie of India❤❤

Only Siddharth could have done this…. Can’t wait to get off from work and see this

Vanga the man himself good to see him

Sidhanth sir thank you so much for talking about Rashmika❤
