Ram Gopal Varma and Sandeep Reddy Vanga
Director Ram Gopal Varma has gone on record to talk about the recently released Ranbir Kapoor-starrer `Animal`. The movie, helmed by Sandeep Reddy Vanga, has been under fire due to its misogynistic nature. Now, Ram Gopal Varma has said that `Animal` cannot be classified as a South Indian film because Sandeep Reddy Vanga would have stopped at nothing to make the film even if he came from a northern state. In a new interview, RGV has even said that South directors are `shell shocked` by Animal`s success.
Ram Gopal Varma talked about how Hindi cinema was going through its rough path for a couple of years where nothing seemed to be working at the box office, while South films were doing much better. Ram Gopal Varma said, "If you take Baahubali as the beginning of (this trend), KGF pretty much solidified it. But the point is, everyone in the South only makes those kind of films. But not all of them work… Directors from the South have always been doing that. I don’t know a single Hindi film director from today’s time who believed in this hero-masala, catering to the front-benchers, not having any logic, creating constant cinematic highs… That kind of template, no one had the conviction in Bombay.”
