Filmmaker Sandeep Reddy Vanga’s latest cinematic venture, Animal, starring Ranbir Kapoor, Rashmika Mandanna, Bobby Deol, and Anil Kapoor, has achieved a remarkable feat at the box office, amassing a staggering global revenue. However, Vanga recently opened about the challenges faced during the film’s release and his regrets regarding post-production decisions.
In a candid interview with Komal Nahta, Vanga shared insights into the intensive last few days leading up to the film’s release, describing them as “horrible.” He revealed, “When I saw the film for the first time, I spotted a lot of problems. Content wise, I felt there were problems with sound. What happened was, since we were releasing in five languages, I lost track of which language sound I was checking. Last 20 days were horrible. We slept in the mixing room for almost three to four days. That should not have happened, there should have been one more week. But I am correcting all those problems for the Netflix version and we are planning to get a Blu-ray also.”
In the interview, Vanga recounted a last-minute revelation regarding a sound issue, just a day before the film’s release. Ranbir Kapoor reportedly played a calming role during this tense moment, helping the director navigate the stressful situation. He said, “I’m currently editing the Netflix version, it will have a few more shots, I should’ve kept the 3-hour 30-minute version but due to pressure I had to cut 8-9 minutes. I’m using that footage for the Netflix version of Animal.”
Looking ahead, Vanga is determined to rectify the identified issues for the Netflix version of Animal. He expressed a desire to include additional shots and revealed his intention to release a Blu-ray version as well. Despite the challenges faced, Vanga’s commitment to delivering an enhanced viewing experience for audiences reflects his dedication to cinematic excellence.
