Sandeep Reddy Vanga is a young and talented director known for his unique style in films. He’s directed three movies: “Arjun Reddy,” “Kabir Singh,” and “Animal.” Although he’s gaining fame, he sometimes faces criticism, especially about how he portrays mother characters in his films. Recently, he appeared on the show “Indian Idol 15,” where he talked about his journey and the support from his family.

He shared a story about how he challenged his mother, saying he would become a director before using the 2 lakhs he earned working at McDonald’s and Subway in Sydney while studying. Sandeep explained that his family wanted him to be an engineer or doctor, but since he didn’t score high enough for MBBS, he chose physiotherapy. However, he soon realized he wasn’t passionate about that and instead loved photography, leading him to film school in Sydney. It took him several years to finally become a director.

When singer Shreya Ghoshal asked if his family supported his film school dreams, he replied that his family, especially his mother, was very supportive. She helped with film school fees and the production of “Arjun Reddy.” He had many meetings with producers, but ultimately, they decided to produce the film themselves.

Sandeep also addressed the criticism about mothers in his movies. He said, “I’m very close to my mom, and because our relationship is so good, there’s no drama to write about. If I make a story about a mother and son, it will be positive and full of good vibes.”

Currently, Sandeep is celebrating one year since his film “Animal,” which starred stars like Ranbir Kapoor, Rashmika Mandanna, Anil Kapoor, and Bobby Deol. The film did well at the box office, but some people criticized it for being disrespectful to women. He is now set to work on a new film called “Spirit” with Prabhas, which is a cop story that hasn’t started filming yet. Rumors are that it will also feature actor Don Lee.
