Animal Park: Sandeep Reddy Vanga gives MAJOR update on Ranbir Kapoor-Triptii Dimri’s film, hints for part 3

Animal Park: Sandeep Reddy Vanga discussed Animal’s potential for the second and third episodes. He also revealed the date he will start filming the sequel.

Zoo: There are only two days left in the theatrical run of ‘Animal,’ starring Ranbir Kapoor, Triptii Dimri Rashmika Mandanna, Bobby Deol and Anil Kapoor ahead of Shah Rukh Khan’s ‘Dunki‘ and Prabhas ‘Salaar‘ will be released on December 21 and 22 respectively. Despite criticism, Sandeep Reddy Vanga’s Animal destroyed the box office with his massive collection. Ranbir Kapoor’s film has already grossed more than 800 crores at film offices worldwide, including more than 500 crores in India. The director recently revealed his ideas for ‘Animal Part 3’ alongside ‘Animal Part 2’.

During a recent interview with Galatta Plus, renowned director Sandeep Reddy Vanga elaborated on the people and sequences in his vengeful action. He said during the conversation that he always wanted to do the second part of the film. So he decided to use a scene from ‘Zoo‘ when the film ended and Ranbir Kapoor looked vulnerable.

Vanga explained his view on softening Vijay’s (Ranbir Kapoor) emotions for the butcher scene, ‘Because this feeling will continue for a while in part two. So I thought, okay, if you see part 1, part 2, you’ll feel good.

When asked about the reason why the film started with Ranbir’s character as a 60-year-old, he talked about the possibility of a trilogy. The director said: “Because we are keeping Part 2 and Part 3 in mind. I thought maybe the old man is narrating in parts 2-3. I thought it was a nice way to open the movie with a laugh and relatively speaking he says a monkey joke.”

Speaking of shooting Animal, Vanga mentioned only after Prabhas’ Spirit, which will hit the floors in September 2024, will start its second part. “Next is Spirit. Then I’m going to work (on Zoo) because I don’t feel like I’m in the writers’ room. I write my own stuff,” the director revealed.

The Arjun Reddy creator also revealed why he chose ‘Animal Park’ as the title for the second part of the action drama. ‘I thought there were a lot of animals, it wasn’t just one or two. So it’s a war now. It is now like Mahabharat between brothers and cousins,” he said.

For the inexperienced, Animal however, ends on a high note, leaving viewers to figure out who’s who in an identity twist. With the post-credit sequence hinting at a sequel, Vanga Reddy had mentioned a meaner, bitterer, bigger and better picture starring Ranbir Kapoor.
