Sandeep Vanga on IAS Officer comments. Sandeep Reddy Vanga is not only known for his bold films like Arjun Reddy/Kabir Singh and Animal but also for his bold take on various issues in real life. Now Sandeep Vanga took on IAS officer for his comments on his film Animal.
Sandeep said, “There is this IAS officer. In a very serious interview, he said, 'Movies like Animal shouldn't be made'. The way he sounded, the way he was saying, it was literally, mujhe laga ki kuch criminal kaam kiya maine (I felt as if I had committed a crime). ‘On one hand, films like 12th Fail are made and on the other films like Animal jo samaajh ko peeche leke jarraha hai (which is pulling the society backwards)’.”
Sandeep was talking about IAS officer Vikas Divyakriti who made such comments. Sandeep went on to add “I'm very honest in saying this ki koi unnecessary attack karega na toh 100% gusssa ayegaa (If anyone attacks unnecessarily, there will be anger). I feel that, he is an IAS officer, he studied to become one. What I think is, go to Delhi, get enrolled in an institute, give 2-3 years of your life, you can crack IAS. There will be a limited amount of books, right? You will study 1500 books...you can crack IAS. I'll give you in writing. There is no course, there is no teacher that can make you a filmmaker and a writer,”
Vikas, a UPSC professor, played himself in the 2023 film 12th Fail, speaking in a show said "A film like Animal takes our society back by 10 years. A film like this should not be made. You earned money. You showed that your hero behaves like an animal. There should be some social value, or are people working only for financial value?”
