As we know, the pre-release event of ‘Animal’ happened on Monday in Hyderabad. It was a grand affair with big names like Mahesh Babu, Rajamouli, Ranbir Kapoor, Rashmika, Anil Kapoor and others gracing the event. During their speeches, SS Rajamouli spoke highly about Ranbir Kapoor and director Sandeep Reddy Vanga. He revealed that Ranbir is his favorite actor in Bollywood as he is very intense. Speaking about Sandeep, he made some interesting comments.
He said that there are many directors who make big films and score blockbusters. But a few directors come once in a while who will shake the audience as well as the film industry. He added that they will destroy all the norms about how a film should be made. It was Ram Gopal Varma in his generation and revealed Sandeep Reddy Vanga is the other director to do so. He said he is proud of Sandeep Vanga and claimed that he follows his heart and not formulas.
Ram Gopal Varma being the maverick that he is, posted the video clip of Rajamouli saying this and wrote, “Never heard of Ram Gopal Varma”. This funny remark on social media brought a lot of smiles on the internet and what Rajamouli said is really true. RGV was the one who broke all the set patterns of Telugu cinema with ‘Shiva’. This game-changing film introduced a lot of new things to Tollywood and over the years, he brought a lot of new filmmaking styles and introduced many artists and technicians to Indian cinema. People who are seeing him for the first now may not know his contribution to the film industry.
