He told iDream Media that there was no ill intent behind making the villain belong to a particular community. When Sandeep told Pranay that the villain will have three wives and eight kids, the latter knew it’s something people would talk about and now Pranay feels he was right.
Pranay talked about some people complained that they didn’t show the community in a good light. He then mentioned that in the last three decades, we have seen numerous villains wearing a bindi or tilak and nobody complained. “Just because it’s a minority now, people are nitpicking,” he added.
‘Animal’ director Sandeep Reddy Vanga reveals that one thing which Ranbir Kapoor refused him for: ‘He didn’t like it all…’
When Pranay was asked if Sandeep is calculative when he shows violence or gives his female actors less screen space, he disagreed and mentioned that Rashmika’s character Geetanjali is as important as Ranbir’s character Ranvijay and Bobby’s character Abrar.
He then revealed that Ranbir hardly has four lines in a four-page-long Karva Chauth scene. He said that Ranbir also told Rashmika that this is her scene and even told her she can hit him multiple times to get her scene right. He added that Ranbir was hit at least 20-25 times before they got the shot right. “RK is not insecure. He wanted the scene to work well emotionally,” Pranay said.
Animal also stars Anil Kapoor and Triptii Dimri among others. The movie is now inching towards Rs 550 crore mark and getting closer to Rs 900 crore mark worldwide.
