Thanks to Arjun Reddy, which had a wild male lead, the thinking of a lot of directors has changed in the Telugu film industry. A pure love story was shown with a touch of rawness. The titular character behaved like someone with real anger issues. That's why Vanga managed to create a sensation with Arjun Reddy. Since then, his rise has been unstoppable.

The hero's characterization in his debut film felt new. If Arjun Reddy got angry, he used cuss words. If he was overcome with feelings of love, he forgot his surroundings and made love with Preethi with passion. Despite being a flawed man, we never hate Arjun Reddy. Vanga succeeded in boldly showing a bold love story without apologies. Kabir Singh, the Hindi remake, was even more bold. The Hindi audience made it a big hit. With his first two films, Vanga became a superstar director.

With Animal, he has broken many rules. He didn't care about the norms that told him an action drama shouldn't exceed 170 minutes. Animal was 200 minutes long. Ranbir Kapoor and Anil Kapoor played a son and a father, respectively. The film has joined the Rs 900 Cr club.

The conflict in Animal was not new. But the narration was extremely refreshing. That's why it was totally engaging. If we watch Animal by empathizing with Ranbir Kapoor's character, we would surely be hooked to the screen.

With the success of Animal, the stamina of a Teugu filmmaker has been proven once again. No wonder that Bollywood producers are queuing up to make films with Vanga. Even Salman Khan and Shah Rukh Khan dream of working with him.

Vanga's moves are going to be very careful. He will do films with Prabhas, Allu Arjun and might team up with Mahesh Babu and Ram Charan someday.
