Sandeep Reddy Vanga’s Animal, featuring Ranbir Kapoor, emerged as a blockbuster, garnering widespread attention.
Despite its success, the film stirred intense reactions from critics and industry insiders. Divergent opinions surfaced within various segments of the audience after the December release, with some considering it a cult film and others holding contrasting views.
The film’s success at the box office elevated Sandeep Reddy Vanga to a pan-Indian brand. However, a notable negative response emanated from Tamil netizens, who expressed their discontent on social media from the film’s inception. This negativity seemed rooted in an apparent insecurity surrounding Sandeep Reddy Vanga.
Individuals who appreciated Animal and Sandeep Reddy Vanga faced severe backlash from certain Tamil audiences. Trisha, for instance, experienced an immediate online attack after posting a positive review, leading to her deletion of the post.
In a recent award event, Sivakarthikeyan expressed admiration for Sandeep Vanga’s films, song-taking, and selection, citing the director’s originality in interviews. However, these statements faced criticism from a portion of Tamil audiences, highlighting the deep-seated insecurity among Tamil netizens regarding Sandeep Reddy Vanga.
It’s important to note that saying all Tamil people hate Sandeep Reddy Vanga might be too broad and unfair. However, it’s clear that some Tamil netizens have shown strong dislike for him, especially after the release of Animal. The way they react to his future projects will be interesting to watch. Will their feelings change over time, or will they continue to express negativity? The reception of Sandeep Reddy Vanga’s upcoming works in Tamil cinema is uncertain and depends on how these initial sentiments evolve. It’s a wait-and-see situation to understand how Tamil audiences will receive his future projects.
